A significant amount of prior research effort in the field of Artificial Intelligence has gone into the design and analysis of planning algorithms. For the most part, this work has been guided by several strong, simplifying assumptions, most notably, that the plans will be performed in static, deterministic environments. Although these assumptions have made rigorous formal analysis possible, th...

In previous work we have investigated a framework for distributed temporal plan repair. Using temporal constraints for activities to be executed, we developed a distributed algorithm capable of dealing with temporal changes (disruptions) in these constraints to perform fast plan repair. This framework, however, did not include resource management issues. In this paper, first of all, we extend o...

Management of natural ecosystems, like forests, has several objectives such as wood production, sustainability of ecological systems, preserving aestheti,c and cultural or psychological satisfaction. This management is especially essential in dry regions with sensitive biodiversity, like Iran. The aim of this research is to elaborate a management scheme for developing a sustainable tourism plan...
