Reactive and Motivational Agents: Towards a Collective Minder
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper explores the design and implementation of a societal arrangement of reflexive and motivational agents which will act as the building blocks for a more abstract agent within which the current agents act as distributed dynamic processing nodes. We contest that reactive, deliberative and other behaviours are required in complete (intelligent) agents. We provide some architectural considerations on how these differing forms of behaviours can be cleanly integrated and relate that to a discussion on the nature of motivational states and the mechanisms used for making decisions.
