# CASAP: A Testbed for Program Flexibility

Robert Balzer

*Proceedings of the Third International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence*, pages 601-604.

## Abstract

CASAP attempts to create a more flexible knowledge-based system for performing actions. It is based on the combination of a procedural representation of actions. and an information retrieval subsystem used to dynamically obtain all information required to perform an action. It is argued that such a combination eases the specification of new actions and increases their ability to obtain. from a wide variety of possible environments. the information they require.
