Abstract

Agents situated in dynamic and unpredictable environments require several capabilities, including synthesizing and executing plans while continuing to be responsive to the world. The Cypress system is a domain independent framework for defining persistent agents with this full range of behavior. Cypress has been used for several applications, including military operations and fault diagnosis on the Space Shuttle.
