The action language Golog has been applied successfully to the control of robots, among other things. Perhaps its greatest advantage is that a user can write programs which constr...
We define the robustness of a sequential plan as the probability that it will execute successfully despite uncertainty in the execution environment. We consider a rich notion of u...
We consider CSP from the point of view of the algebraic theory of effects, which classifies operations as effect constructors and effect deconstructors; it also provides a link wit...
Ownership types characterize the topology of objects in the heap, through a characterization of the context to which an object belongs. They have been used to support reasoning, me...
A great deal of research has addressed the problem of generating optimal plans, but these plans are of limited use in circumstances where noisy sensors, unanticipated exogenous ac...
