Model of Freud's "Pleasure Pump" in Virtual Robots

The contribution sketches a reformulation of S. Freud's concept of the so-called "pleasure pump" formulated in his manuscript Project of Scientific Psychology from 1895, into the computationalistic conceptual framework of multi-agent - or "resource", as M. Minsky has proposed in his book The Emotion Machine (2006) - systems, and provides its demonstration within a programmed system of software agents developed to be analogical to the fundamental ideas of the concept. In this way we check Freud's concept: generation of behavior similar to courting couple based just on individual mechanisms of the concept implies both its correctness and completeness.
