Hello!

A good place to start looking is http://www.adapower.com
For sockets I recommend AdaSockets:
http://www-inf.enst.fr/ANC/

and if you need more OS features (and your system is POSIX compilant) the
Florist POSIX binding is very useful:
http://www.cs.fsu.edu/~baker/florist.html

Binaries for at least Linux are available at AdaPower.

Btw. I have a (somewhat confused) behaviorbased robot control system on
my homepage http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~d96andgi under the
Autonomous Agents link. (Unfortunatly the report is in swedish)

Best Regards
