The Architecture for Behaviour-Based Agents (ABBA) is an architecture designed to illustrate that situated agents can exhibit sophisticated planning while retaining reactivity, without resorting to hybrid architectures. In particular, unified planning for spatial and topological navigation, cooperation and communication can be achieved using an appropriate actionselection scheme. Joint-planning...

relationship between public and private sector is becoming an increasingly important issue in management of agricultural extension services. the need for a strong linkage could be identified as the gap between desirable and current situation. in this research, the differences among current and desirable situation in six diverse dimensions was calculated. the current and desirable situation was ...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the role of extension services in enhancing effectiveness of out growers’ credit system in kisumu county, kenya. the study specifically sought to determine whether public and private extension services play a significant role in enhancing effectiveness of out-growers’ credit system among smallholder sugarcane farmers. a total of 110 small scale farme...

abstractthe purpose of this study was to assess organizational and personnel structure in iranian agriculture extension system (iaes). the research instrument was a structural questionnaire including close-ended questions which its validity and reliability was confirmed by using expert panel and cranach’s alpha test, respectively. the statistical population of this research included all public ...

The optimal path planning of cooperative manipulators is studied in the present research. Optimal Control Theory is employed to calculate the optimal path of each joint choosing an appropriate index of the system to be minimized and taking the kinematics equations as the constraints. The formulation has been derived using Pontryagin Minimum Principle and results in a Two Point Boundary Value Pr...

Abstract The mission of Land Grant Institutions (LGIs) and Cooperative Extension has always included the concept educational access. Indeed, there is an office in or near all 3,000 counties US serving nearly 100% counties. However, not served communities equitably, both their access to agricultural resources kinds programs that they provide. An important example these inequities can be seen Ind...
