Abstract

In this paper we descibe the process of action control used by the agents of the magmaFreiburg team. It is based on extended behavior networks; which add situation-dependent motivational influence on the agent and extend original behavior networks to exploit information from continuous domains. Advantages of the original networks; such as reactivity; planning capabilities; robustness; accountance for multiple goals and its cheap and distributed calculations are maintained.
