Of course, other topicscould support the course objectives. In fact, the previous year in which this course wastaught in this manner, students worked on extending a classical AI planner and did not userobots. We felt, however, that mobile robots offered unique advantages. Because mobilerobots are situated in the world, they offer important challenges for AI. The robots mustdeal with uncertainty in sensors and actuators, perform robustly in a wide range ofsituations and respond in real-time in a dynamic environment.

Vitruvius’ ancient ideals of Firmness, Commodity, and Delight have challengedarchitects and students of architecture for centuries. The education of an architect includescourse work in “architectural ‘basics’ – architectural history, architectural theory, drawing,technical courses such as structures and environmental systems, and, above all, design”1 Findingthe balance and connections between these areas of study is the challenge that faces students ofarchitecture each day.In 1996, the late Ernest L.

This demand can be met by faculty members (and full-time researchers) atuniversities seeking to develop active research programs. However, researchers (and administra-tors) at universities must recognize that there are differences when working with industry, asagreements, expectations and time frames for corporations are substantially different than thosefor the government. Also, engineers (and managers) in industry must understand that universitiesare not corporate business units nor consulting firms.
