Domain events can occur asynchronously with respect to the agent. In such cases, if the agent is not constantly perceiving its world, events may go unnoticed, leading to seemingly irrational behavior. To avoid this, architectures often shift to more parallel approach, in terms of the sensing strategies used.


The following architectures do not restrict themselves to events that are synchronous with the agent's perceptions:
