Planning

Often a system will augment the traditional reactive architectures with a means of deliberating ahead of the current state toward some goal state in order to determine possible paths (and so the best path) to the goal. This is the definition of planning. This capability is typically due to the use of symbolic abstraction. The notion of planning is also used in solving problems in navigation.

The following architectures integrate planning mechanisms:

Planning and Learning Architecture (PRODIGY)
MAX
Problem Space Architecture (Soar)
THEO
Adaptive Intelligent Systems (AIS)
Icarus
Homer
Ralph-MEA
Entropy Reduction Engine

The following architectures facilitate planning, but do not provide it:
