ogPrime's action selection aspect is fairly similar to MicroPsi (due to the common foundation in Dorner's Psi model), the dynamics are less similar. MicroPsi's dynamics are a little closer to being a formal neural net model, whereas ECAN's economic foundation tends to push it in different directions. The

s some simple simulated financial mechanisms, building on the economic metaphor of ELAN, that are different from, and more complex than, anything in MicroPsi. The main actors (apart from the usual ones like the AtomTable, economic attention alloca- tion, etc.) in the tale to be told here are as follows:

ti-participant virtual environment (like the Multiverse environment EFTA00624280 134 26 Perceptual and Motor Hierarchies currently used with the PetBrain) or a small-scale robot simulator. Our experiments with virtual worlds so far have used the high-level approach described here; but we are also expe
