We then propose an exact algorithm, based on van Beek's (1990) exact algorithm, for finding feasible relations for multi-point event networks. The complexity of our method is compared with previously known results both for recurring and non-recurring events. We identify the special cases for which our multi-point based algorithm can find an exact solution. Finally, we summarise our paper with brief discussion on ongoing and future research.","PeriodicalId":259291,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Third International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME '96)","volume":"217 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123252476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to the common case of multi-valued properties, there are several possible semantics to multiple values with overlapping validity times of the same data item. We refer to such data items as having simultaneous values. This paper presents a polynomial algorithm for efficient handling of simultaneous values in a database with temporal data dependencies-integrity rules that define relationships among values of different dated items in a temporal database. The algorithm is demonstrated using a case study from the game theory area. An implementation of the algorithm is integrated in a prototype of a temporal active database.","PeriodicalId":259291,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Third International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME '96)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114298225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to discrete CSPs, enforcing path consistency on TCSPs is exponential due to the fragmentation problem. We present an efficient polynomial constraint propagation algorithm, called \"loose-path consistency\" (LPC), which is shown to improve the performance of backtrack search algorithms by orders of magnitude. The tradeoffs between the effectiveness and efficiency of LPC are analyzed. We report the presence of a phase transition on this domain and perform an empirical evaluation on problems which lie in the transition region.","PeriodicalId":259291,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Third International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME '96)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125307325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A theory of time and temporal incidence based on instants and periods 以瞬间和周期为基础的时间和时间发生的理论

A proper temporal representation requires characterizing two notions: (1) time itself, and (2) temporal incidence, i.e. the domain-independent properties for the truth-value of fluents and events throughout time. There are some problematic issues, such as the expression of instantaneous events and instantaneous holding of fluents, the specification of the properties for the temporal holding of fluents, and the \"dividing instant problem\". This paper presents a theory of time and temporal incidence which is more natural than its predecessors and satisfactorily addresses the issues above. Our theory of time, called /spl Iscr//spl Pscr/ (Instants and Periods), is based on having instants and periods at equal levels. We define a theory of temporal incidence upon it, whose main original feature is the distinction between continuous and discrete fluents.","PeriodicalId":259291,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Third International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME '96)","volume":"176 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122416830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Innovative work has been done on composing primitive actions so as to bring about desired final states. The thesis advanced in this paper is that instead of simply focusing on primitive actions, it is also useful to use representation and reasoning tools whose primitive objects are sequences of actions (or the associated sequences of states that they generate). Temporal logics are a useful tool for representing and reasoning about action sequences. The author has examined some different applications of temporal logics to problems of planning and control.","PeriodicalId":259291,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Third International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME '96)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133539835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Temporal resolution: a breadth-first search approach 时间分辨率:宽度优先搜索方法

{"title":"Temporal resolution: a breadth-first search approach","authors":"C. Dixon","doi":"10.1109/TIME.1996.555690","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/TIME.1996.555690","url":null,"abstract":"An approach to applying clausal resolution, a proof method for classical logics suited to mechanisation, to temporal logics has been developed by Fisher. The method involves translation to a normal form, classical style resolution within states and temporal resolution between states. The method consists of only one temporal resolution rule and is therefore particularly suitable as the basis of an automated temporal resolution theorem prover. As the application of this temporal resolution rule is the most costly part of the method, involving search amongst graphs, it is on this area we focus. A breadth-first search approach to the application of this rule is presented and shown to be correct. Analysis of its operation is carried out and test results for its comparison to a previously developed depth-first style algorithm given.","PeriodicalId":259291,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Third International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME '96)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123494144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
