Challenges for Complete Creature Architectures - Brooks (1990) (32 citations) (Correct)
....interesting work on the organization of social insects [Deneubourg et al. 87] is just one example of how complex patterns of behavior can emerge from simple systems of biological creatures. The theories on dynamical systems. and self organization and the construction of dissipative structures ( Nicolis and Prigogine 77] may have some relevance to the field also. See [Steels 89] for one approach to investigating the behavior of many simple creatures acting in a single environment. None of this work at this point gives us any handle on how to synthesize creatures which will carry out global tasks that we ....

....to say that a particular series of actions was produced by a particular behavior. Sometimes many behaviors are operating simultaneously, or are switching rapidly [Horswill and Brooks 88] Over the years there has been a lot of work on emergence based on the theme of self organization (e.g. Nicolis and Prigogine 77] Within behavior based robots there is beginning to be work at better characterizing emergent functionality, but it is still in its early stages, e.g. Steels 90a] He defines it as meaning that a function is achieved indirectly by the interaction of more primitive components among themselves ....
