Introduction to the special issue on constraint satisfaction for planning and scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
The areas of Artificial Intelligence planning and scheduling have seen important advances thanks to the application of constraint satisfaction models and techniques. Especially, solutions to many real-world problems need to integrate plan synthesis capabilities with resource allocation, which can be efficiently managed by using constraint satisfaction techniques. Constraint satisfaction plays an important role in solving such real life problems, and integrated techniques that manage planning and scheduling with constraint satisfaction are particularly useful.

Introduction to planning, scheduling and constraint satisfaction
Planning, scheduling and constraint satisfaction are important areas in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Many real-world problems are known as AI planning and scheduling problems, where resources must be allocated so as to optimize overall performance objectives. Therefore, solving these problems requires an adequate mixture of planning, scheduling and resource allocation to competing goal activit...
متن کاملA multi-objective mathematical model for nurse scheduling problem with hybrid DEA and augmented ε-constraint method: A case study
The efficient management of nursing personnel is of vital importance in a hospital’s environment comprising a vast share of the hospital’s operational costs. In the nurse scheduling problem (NSP), the target is to allocate shifts to the nurses in order to satisfy the hospital’s demand during the planning horizon by considering different objective functions. This paper presents a multi-objective...
متن کاملPreface to special issue on planning and scheduling
Planning, scheduling and constraint satisfaction are important areas in artificial intelligence (AI) with broad practical applicability. Many real-world problems can be formulated as AI planning and scheduling (P&S) problems, where resources must be allocated to optimize overall performance objectives. Frequently, solving these problems requires an adequate mixture of planning, scheduling and r...
متن کاملSpecial Track on Artificial Intelligence Planning and Scheduling
Planning has belonged to fundamental areas of AI since its beginning and sessions on planning are an integral part of major AI conferences. By generating activities necessary to achieve some goal, planning is also closely related to scheduling that deals with allocation of activities to scarce resources. Although the planning and scheduling communities are somehow separated, both areas have int...
متن کاملIntroduction: Special Issue on Distributed Constraint Satisfaction
Constraint satisfaction is one of the most successful problem solving paradigms in Artificial Intelligence. Since its original development over 30 years ago [2–4], it has found numerous applications in almost all areas of AI. Its most common applications today are in configuration, planning, scheduling and resource allocation, and form the basis of a significant software industry. With increasi...
