Abstract:

Abstract. Weintroduce an approach to system development applicable in arti cial intelligence domain. It is strongly based on the subsumption architecture invented by R. Brooks in half of eighties. It could be said that the approach is an application of the technology originated in mobile robotics to software engineering. However, a new explanation based on the multi-agent systems consisting of so-called purely reactive agents communicating indirectly through their environment is presented. Moreover some new issues related to a domain of software are stated. Finally some philosophical aspects are discussed. 1
