We take the vocabulary and the main concepts from Piaget’s genetic epistemology and Vygotsky’s activity theory. After proposing an outline for a general developmental architecture, we describe the architectures that we have been developing in the recent years - Petitagé and Vygovorotsky. According to this outline, various contemporary works in autonomous agents can be classified, in an attempt to get a glimpse into the big picture and make the advances and open problems visible. date: 2002 date_type: published volume: 94 publisher: Lund University Cognitive Studies pagerange: 63-69 refereed: TRUE citation: Kulakov, Andrea and Stojanov, Georgi (2002) Structures, inner values, hierarchies and stages: essentials for developmental robot architectures.
