Temporal constraint networks

TLDR
It is shown that the STP, which subsumes the major part of Vilain and Kautz's point algebra, can be solved in polynomial time and the applicability of path consistency algorithms as preprocessing of temporal problems is studied, to demonstrate their termination and bound their complexities.

Inferring Context and Goals for Online Human-Aware Planning

TL;DR: This work uses an approach whereby human-awareness is enforced through so-called interaction constraints to infer context and appropriate goals online and modified at run time so as to achieve courses of action that are continuously human-aware.

Maintaining knowledge about temporal intervals

James F. Allen
- 01 Mar 1991 - 
TL;DR: An interval-based temporal logic is introduced, together with a computationally effective reasoning algorithm based on constraint propagation, which is notable in offering a delicate balance between space and time.

Consistency in Networks of Relations

TL;DR: The primary aim is to provide an accessible, unified framework, within which to present the algorithms including a new path consistency algorithm, to discuss their relationships and the may applications, both realized and potential of network consistency algorithms.
