Abstract

Consciousness has always been treated as a clandestine since epochs.Its studies scaled broader in different disciplines and approaches makes the same more convoluted.Considering consciousness more experiential and subjective researches are done but has always ended with new questions.The material sciences have done significant progress in the time being.Human behavior has an intricate relation with brain and its functions.Biologists, Neuroscientists have tried to explain brain its anatomy and physiology in order to understand human behavior.Psychology as a science of studying human behavior attempts to answer few basic questions relates the human black box (brain) but many are still unanswered.The physical artifacts and devices too analogously mimic humans as it was done in the case of Central Processing Unit (CPU) in the computer.Computers Scientists are making serious attempts to formulate Artificial Consciousness.Present paper attempts to provide a comprehensive understanding of division, design and development of Consciousness.The paper also provides a better understanding regarding the paradigm shift of human consciousness studies towards Machine consciousness simulation.Lastly with the help of available models of consciousness, we are trying to evolve another consciousness model.
