heal.abstract	In the present study, we investigate and analyze the behavior of explorer agents. We perform a number of experiments with single and multiple agents and we obtain a number of corresponding results. First, we decouple the agent's functional/motivational system from its cognitive/representational system and show that intricate regulation is necessary to achieve effective and efficient behavior. In the multiple agents case, we extend the single agent behavioral model with a form of sociality selected from a progression of alternatives designed and evaluated. We also show how the general regulation perspective allows for design and analysis of explorer systems. We do not miss to provide variations of the problem and potential applications all along the way. Copyright © 2005 Taylor & Francis Inc.	en
