We shed light on the connections between different approaches to constraint satisfaction by showing that the main consistency concepts used to derive tractability results for cons...
Previous work on ordering events in text has typically focused on local pairwise decisions, ignoring globally inconsistent labels. However, temporal ordering is the type of domain...
We develop an algorithm for merging plans that are represented in a richly expressive language. Speci cally, weare concerned with plans that have i quantitative temporal constrain...

The criterion of total weighted completion time occurs as a sub-problem of combinatorial optimization problems in such diverse areas as scheduling, container loading and storage a...
In a facility with front room and back room operations, it is useful to switch workers between the rooms in order to cope with changing customer demand. Assuming stochastic custom...
