Future studies are required to explore how representational and control areas work together to generate semantic cognition and, if there are multiple representational hubs, how semantic knowledge is distributed between them.
We showed that representations optimized for predictability can be used as a basis for path planning and navigation, and offer greater navigability and representational parsimony than control configurations of compact, solid macrostates.
However, neither investigation experimentally separated semantic representational requirements from control demands.

Homonym processing is thought to increase both control and representational demands: more than one concept may be activated for the same lexical item (e.g., bank), and there may be competition between the alternative meanings of one word (e.g., between the 2 meanings of bank referring to the financial institution vs. riverside).
These results show that individual differences in functional connectivity at rest predict semantic performance and are consistent with a component process account of semantic cognition in which representational information is shaped by control processes to fit the current requirements, in both comprehension and fluency tasks.
The idea that neural structures in basic minds might be representational as long as they control behavior and are related to reward mechanisms is not just convenient, and my argument for using it is not based on the assumption that more facts can be subsumed under representational generalizations than under neural generalizations (Pylyshyn 1984).
Researches in many fields of knowledge have benefited from the use of representational resources such as terminologies, controlled vocabularies and ontologies.
If the learner is induced to manipulate the content on screen and control the content with representational gestures that are congruent to what is being learned, we would consider that experience to be high embodied.
Roughly, a system possesses stimulus-independence to the degree that the exercise of its representational abilities is not under stimulus control.
