Limited Resources
A physical agent cannot possess infinite resources. There are bounds on
memory and processing capabilities. The limited computation resources
available to the agent directly influence the types of processing it can
afford to do. Given these limitations it may not always be possible to
guarantee perfect rationality.
However, it is desirable that the agent perform as well as capable, obeying
some bounded rationality
constraints.
The following architectures have developed methods for countering these
resource limitations:
