I just read an article in the new Discover magazine about robots that
are controlled by responses to a set of behaviors.  Rather than operating
with a real-world model, these robots use a set of primitives that compete
for control.

EX:	
If the robot encounters a wall, the AVIOD OBSTACLE behavior assumes control 
and guides the robot around the wall.  Then the other behavior resumes
control.

Does anyone have any information on this method or can they recommend any
literature on the subject??

Furthermore, what do you think about his ideas personally??
