and simple-event KSARs in the To-Do-Set, updates the Clocktime and creates a

new clock-event Tactic, effectively reverting to item (4) above. It continues

creating new iterations of the Strategy in this fashion indefinitely.

As the example illustrates, the blackboard control architecture can replicate

HASP'S

control behavior while providing several additional advantages. First, as

discussed in Section 4, it achieves the behavioral Goals set forth in Section 2.

Second, it explicates important control reasoning obscured in

HASP'S

control

program. Third, it illuminates control heuristics applicable to different problem

domains. For example

HASP ...
