Rationale-Based Monitoring for Planning in Dynamic Environments
We describe a framework for planning in dynamic environments. A central question is how to focus the sensing performed by such a system, so that it responds appropriately to relev...

Actions with Failures in Interval Temporal Logic
Abstract. Failures are unavoidable in many circumstances. For example, an agent may fail at some point to perform a task in a dynamic environment. Robust systems typically have mec...
