Open-Loop Processing

In open-loop systems, there is no feedback from the environment to the agent. In other words, the output from architectural processes are considered complete upon execution. This makes open-loop systems most appropriate for simulated rather than real environments since real environments would often not tolerate the assumption that tasks are performed perfectly by the architectural agent. However, open-loop systems are generally more efficient for the same reason.

Contrast this with Closed-Loop Processing.
