Hybrid architectures show a relationship between the purely reactive and plans-oriented. This t) e of architecture aims to obtain a proper harmony between the so-called traditional symbolic methods of Artificial Intelligence and the response capacity and flexibility of pure reagents systems. In this way, by means of these architectures of character hybrid is a possible reactive control systems providing the ability to reason about the fimdamental behaviors, optimizing the performance of navigation in complex operating environments.

A mathematical device, the NSS, which can be related to Artificial Intelligence techniques, has been defined and applied in order to solve or reformulate some quantum chemical problems. This symbol is related to computer formulae generation. It has been shown that by means of the use of NSS s many applications of such symbols can be found in mathematics as well as in Mathematical Chemistry in particular. 

KARMA is an interactive computer assisted drug design tool that incorporates quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR), conformational analysis, and three-dimensional graphics. It represents a novel approach to receptor mapping analysis when the x-ray structure of the receptor site is not known, karma utilizes real time interactive three-dimensional color computer graphics combined with numerical computations and symbolic manipulation techniques from the field of artificial intelligence.
