Certain problems in connection with, for example, cooperating agents and distributed systems require reasoning about time which is measured on incomparable or unsynchronized time ...
We present here a theory of motion from a topological point of view, in a symbolic perspective. Taking space-time histories of objects as primitive entities, we introduce temporal...
Abstract. Establishing local consistency is one of the main algorithmic techniques in temporal and spatial reasoning. In this area, one of the central questions for the various pro...
Qualitative temporal and spatial reasoning is in many cases based on binary relations such as before, after, starts, contains, contact, part of, and others derived from these by r...
Local search techniques have attracted considerable interest in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community since the development of GSAT [9] and the min-conflicts heuristic [5] ...
