Real-Time Execution

While speed is an issue in all architectures to varying degrees, the ability to guarantee real-time performance places a tighter restriction on the speed requirements of the system. Real-time performance means that the agent is guaranteed to behave within certain time constraints as specified by the task and the environment. This is especially challenging in a dynamic environment because it provides an very tight time constraint on performance. Perfect rationality is perhaps impossible to guarantee when operating under a real-time constraint and thus some architectures will satisfice with bounded rationality to achieve this goal.
