The early 1980s saw the development of a new perspective on motor control inspired by theories of self-organization and dynamical systems theory. Its first efforts were directed at the investigation of rhythmic movements in terms of two-dimensional (autonomous) limit cycle oscillators. The corresponding studies are characterized by the development of detailed and generally task-specific models, which have resulted in a detailed documentation of the relation between oscillator properties and task requirements. The study of discrete movements for a long time received far less attention; its conjunctional theoretical and empirical investigation has only recently set off and is characterized by an explicit focus on phase flows and topologies therein.
