Active objects constitute an important milestone in the quest for real AI. Active objects provides framework for decision making that goes beyond traditional AI. This framework enables transcending the number crunching and pattern recognition based decision making algorithms that form the basis of the AI systems employed today.
Featuring decentralised intelligent objects, active objects are capable of independent and collective decision making. Whilst the logic & rules are manually defined to start with, the framework allows for innate learning and decision making by the active objects to deliver a paradigm shift in AI programming.
Initially conceived in the Labaratoire teleinformatique at the swiss Federeal research institute, the active object paradigm has seen over 30 years of sustained development and evolution. Combined with latest breakthroughs such as multi-core processing, distributed computing and IOT, we are on the threshold of exciting real life applications.
