Asynchronous Processing

In modular architectures, the operation of the architecture can follow a set pattern, such as plan then execute, or the modules can operate independently of the other modules. This latter operation is a form of parallelism known as asynchronous control. In this case, the modules of the architecture interact only when passing information (perceived world knowledge, control plans, etc.) to one another.
