A Unified Approach to Intelligent Agency

The paper presents a unified approach to intelligent agency that has been developed by the members of the Laboratory for Knowledge Representation in Logic at the Department of Computer and Information Science, University of Linkoping since 1986. The approach is based on the theory of Inhabited Dynamical Systems proposed and developed by Sandewall [27], on the integrated layered software architecture concept developed at our lab [24] and on the research on specification of reactive system behaviour pursued since 1990 [15].
