Concurrent Constraint Programming

by Vijay A. Saraswat, Martin Rinard , 1993
"... This paper presents a new and very rich class of (con-current) programming languages, based on the notion of comput.ing with parhal information, and the con-commitant notions of consistency and entailment. ’ In this framework, computation emerges from the inter-action of concurrently executing agent ..."

Economic Action and Social Structure: The Problem of Embeddedness

by Mark Granovetter - American Journal of Sociology , 1985
"... How behavior and institutions are affected by social relations is one of the classic questions of social theory. This paper concerns the extent to which economic action is embedded in structures of social relations, in modern industrial society. Although the usual neoclassical accounts provide an &q ..."

structures of social relations, and a sophisticated account of economic action must consider its embeddedness in such structures. The argument is illustrated by a critique of Oliver Williamson's "markets and hierarchies " research program. INTRODUCTION: THE PROBLEM OF EMBEDDEDNESS How behavior

GOLOG: A Logic Programming Language for Dynamic Domains

by Hector J. Levesque, Raymond Reiter, Yves Lespérance, Fangzhen Lin, Richard B. Scherl , 1994
"... This paper proposes a new logic programming language called GOLOG whose interpreter automatically maintains an explicit representation of the dynamic world being modeled, on the basis of user supplied axioms about the preconditions and effects of actions and the initial state of the world. This allo ..."

Integrated architectures for learning, planning, and reacting based on approximating dynamic programming

by Richard S. Sutton - Proceedings of the SevenLh International Conference on Machine Learning , 1990
"... gutton~gte.com Dyna is an AI architecture that integrates learning, planning, and reactive execution. Learning methods are used in Dyna both for compiling planning results and for updating a model of the effects of the agent's actions on the world. Planning is incremental and can use the probab ..."

Representing Action and Change by Logic Programs

by Michael Gelfond, Vladimir Lifschitz - Journal of Logic Programming , 1993
"... We represent properties of actions in a logic programming language that uses both classical negation and negation as failure. The method is applicable to temporal projection problems with incomplete information, as well as to reasoning about the past. It is proved to be sound relative to a semantics ..."

Between MDPs and Semi-MDPs: A Framework for Temporal Abstraction in Reinforcement Learning

by Richard S. Sutton , Doina Precup , Satinder Singh , 1999
"... Learning, planning, and representing knowledge at multiple levels of temporal abstraction are key, longstanding challenges for AI. In this paper we consider how these challenges can be addressed within the mathematical framework of reinforcement learning and Markov decision processes (MDPs). We exte ..."

and action to be included in the reinforcement learning framework in a natural and general way. In particular, we show that options may be used interchangeably with primitive actions in planning methods such as dynamic programming and in learning methods such as Q-learning. Formally, a set of options defined

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

by ] Richard Hackman , Grec R Oldham , 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

Department of Labor . Since grantees conducting research

Implementation intentions. Strong effects of simple plans

by Peter M. Gollwitzer - AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGIST , 1999
"... When people encounter problems in translating their goals into action (e.g., failing to get started, becoming distracted, or falling into bad habits), they may strategically call on automatic processes in an attempt to secure goal attain-ment. This can be achieved by plans in the form of imple-menta ..."

Programs with Common Sense

by John McCarthy - Semantic Information Processing , 1968
"... This paper will discuss programs to manipulate in a suitable formal lan- guage (most likely a part of the predicate calculus) common instrumental statements. The basic program will draw immediate conclusions from a list of premises. These conclusions will be either declarative or imperative sentence ..."

These actions may include printing sentences, moving sentences on lists. and reinitiating the basic deduction process on these lists. Facilities will be provided for communication with humans in the system via manual

Generalization in Reinforcement Learning: Successful Examples Using Sparse Coarse Coding

by Richard S. Sutton - Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 8 , 1996
"... On large problems, reinforcement learning systems must use parameterized function approximators such as neural networks in order to generalize between similar situations and actions. In these cases there are no strong theoretical results on the accuracy of convergence, and computational results have ..."
