Interactive storytelling in the virtual environment attracts a lot of research interests in recent years. Story plot and character are two most important elements of a story. Based...
We view dynamic scheduling as a sequential decision problem. Firstly, we introduce a generalized planning operator, the stochastic task model (STM), which predicts the effects of ...
In this paper, timed Petri nets are used to model and control hybrid systems. Petri nets are used instead of finite automata primarily because of the advantages they offer in de...

Abstract. We consider weighted o-minimal hybrid systems, which extend classical o-minimal hybrid systems with cost functions. These cost functions are “observer variables” whic...
