Abstract. One of the most successful approaches in automated planning is to use heuristic state-space search. A popular heuristic that is used by a number of state-space planners i...

In many practical engineering design problems, the form of objective function is not given explicitly in terms of design variables. Given the value of design variables, under this ...
We address the problem of finding parallel plans for SQL queries using the two-phase approach of join ordering followed by parallelization. We focus on the parallelization phase a...
Many bacteria carry gene complexes that code for a toxin-antidote pair, e.g. colicin systems. Such gene complexes can be advantageous for its host by killing competitor bacteria wh...
This paper proposes an optimal approach to infinite-state action planning exploiting automata theory. State sets and actions are characterized by Presburger formulas and represent...
