When people use analogies to solve problems they form an analogical mapping between two domains of knowledge. This mapping may support inferences by analogy that suggest a novel solution to a problem. Several factors have been proposed to be important in selecting this mapping, from among several alternative mappings: structural factors (systematicity and structural consistency) and pragmatic f...

Considerations of justice with regards to climate change adaptation are increasingly called for in the academic literature, but little attention has been paid dimensions regarding development policy and instruments used. Thus, there is a gap when it comes connecting different types strategies plans. Here, we synthesise findings previous studies create an index four context adaptation: recogniti...

Today’s society increasingly depends on software systems subject to varying environmental conditions imposing that they continuously adapt. A dynamic adaptation reconfigures a running system from a consistent state into another consistent state. To achieve this goal, a reconfiguration consists in executing a set of actions leading from source to target configuration. The planning of actions has...

In this paper, we discuss our approach to making the behavior of planetary rovers more robust for the purpose of increased productivity. Due to the inherent uncertainty in rover exploration, the traditional approach to rover control is conservative, limiting the autonomous operation of the rover and sacri cing performance for safety. Our objective is to increase the science productivity possibl...

Case-based planning (CBP) is based on reusing past successful plans for solving new problems. CBP is particularly useful in environments where the large amount of time required to traverse extensive search spaces makes traditional planning techniques unsuitable. In particular, in real-time domains, past plans need to be retrieved and adapted in real time and efficient plan adaptation techniques...

Coordinated action for a team of robots is a challenging problem, especially in dynamic, unpredictable environments. In the context of robot soccer, a complex domain with teams of robots in an adversarial setting, there is a great deal of uncertainty in the opponent’s behavior and capabilities. We introduce the concept of a play as a team plan, which combines both reactive principles, which are...

To achieve the goals of Paris Climate Agreement, countries and regions, cities municipalities, companies organizations adopt implement climate plans. The Nordic are among leaders in this activity. Therefore, familiarization with experience direction is particular interest. This toolkit presents both change mitigation adaptation plans being developed implemented at various levels, primarily coun...

The planning of goal-directed movements is highly adaptable; however, the basic mechanisms underlying this adaptability are not well understood. Even the features of movement that drive adaptation are hotly debated, with some studies suggesting remapping of goal locations and others suggesting remapping of the movement vectors leading to goal locations. However, several previous motor learning ...

This study examines support for climate adaptation planning and the role of perceived risk, uncertainty, and trust on adaptation of U.S. coastal communities. This assessment is based on the analysis of webbased questionnaires (n = 137) among state, local, and non-government organization (NGO) planners in Alaska, Florida, and Maryland. Ordinal regression and correlation analysis were used to ass...
