We present a general framework for defining nonmonotonic systems based on the notion of preferred maximal consistent subsets of the premises. This framework subsumes David Poole...
Many real life optimization problems contain both hard and soft constraints, as well as qualitative conditional preferences. However, there is no single formalism to specify all t...

We consider the problem of incorporating arbitrary preferences in planning systems. A preference may be seen as a goal or constraint that is desirable, but not necessary, to satis...
It is well-known that default reasoning and preference-based decision making both make use of preferential relations between possible worlds resp. alternatives. In this paper, we ...
This paper shows how action theories, expressed in an extended version of the language B, can be naturally encoded using Prioritized Default Theory. We also show how prioritized d...
