This paper describes a distributed modelling framework of the motor control processes that underly the planning of cursive handwriting. The model, that focuses on the hypothetical functions of the posterior parietal cortex combines a paradigm of self-organization (for building robust and coherent maps of the different motor spaces) with relaxation dynamics (for run-time incorporation of task constraints) and non-linear integration (for a smooth integration between via-points).
