Style of control in the Adaptive Intelligent Systems Architecture

Style of Control in the Adaptive Intelligent Systems Architecture

All of the AIS processes (cognition, perception, and action) run in parallel, to maintain continuous, concurrent, asynchronous operation. However, to maintain coherence, all processes consult with the globally available control plan. The knowledge sources used by the global database (which is also universally accessible) can contain relatively large code fragments, so to bound latencies their operation must be interruptible. The satisficing cycle mediates the operation of the reasoning processes, also providing for time-stress responsivity and graceful degradation. Even in the face of newly amassed knowledge, this cycle maintains speed independence.
