Ok, at the level of the Observer, Generator etc. it is exactly the same level as in SmartSoft. I was first thinking on
dynamic wiring at the level of hot spots ...

And I agree, that the "dynamic wiring" in that sense is an important aspect which is mainly raised by robotics people.
It therefore really might be worth it to call it THE robotics pattern ...
