Abstract
We describe an architecture for action planning
and execution control for mobile robots based on the
use of a planner/supervisor pair that associates de­
liberation and reactivity. The supervision component
is based on the Procedural Reasoning System (PRS)
that controls the execution of scripts and plans in
dynamic environments. The robot's actions are ex­
ecuted by modules embedding the necessary process­
ings for action and perception.
1 Introduction
An autonomous robot should be able to antici­
pate its future actions to achieve its tasks efficiently.
