abstract: |
  In this paper we name some of the advantages of
  virtual laboratories; and propose that a Behaviours
  Virtual Laboratory should be useful for both biologists
  and AI researchers, offering a new perspective for
  understanding adaptive behaviour. We present our
  development of a Behaviours Virtual Laboratory, which
  at this stage is focused in action selection, and show
  some experiments to illustrate the properties of our
  proposal, which can be accessed via Internet.
