3 Introduction definitions Object An object is something material [i.e. an element in ] that may be perceived by the senses 1. The union of objects forms the complement to the empty, or free-space. Agent Decision-making objects are agents. They adhere to a system description. [1]: Merriam-Webster. Object - Definition.
