Tentacular Artificial Intelligence, and the Architecture Thereof,
  Introduced
  We briefly introduce herein a new form of distributed, multi-agent artificial
intelligence, which we refer to as "tentacular." Tentacular AI is distinguished
by six attributes, which among other things entail a capacity for reasoning and
planning based in highly expressive calculi (logics), and which enlists
subsidiary agents across distances circumscribed only by the reach of one or
more given networks.
