ABSTRACT	for Correspondence An agent should adopt different control modes in different situations. Depending on the predictability of its environment and the constraint imposed by its goals, the agent should modulate its sensitivity to run-time events and its commitment to specific actions. We propose an opportunistic control model that supports this flexibility. 3 Abstract Given its multiple goals, limited resources, and dynamic environment, an intelligent agent must decide which of many possible actions to execute at each point in time. Planning and reactive models embody two different modes of control. By contrast, we characterize a two-dimensional space of control modes, each of which maximizes the quality of run-time behavior in the corresponding region of a two-dimensional space of control situations. The situation space is defined by dimensions representing the predictability of the agent's task environment and the constraint imposed by its goals. The space of control modes is defined ...	user correction - Legacy Corrections
