Advances in Interfacing Production Systems with the Real World
Barachini, Franz, Ishida, Toru, Tambe, Miland
The workshop "Advances in Interfacing Production Systems with the Real World" was designed to bring together researchers from around the world to focus on the problem of integrating production systems into industrial environments. It was held on 25 August 1991 in Sydney, Australia, in conjunction with the Twelfth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI-91). Nine papers were accepted for the proceedings, and six of them were discussed at the workshop.
The Sixth Annual Knowledge-Based Software Engineering Conference
The Sixth Annual Knowledge-Based Software Engineering Conference (KBSE-91) was held at the Sheraton University Inn and Conference Center in Syracuse, New York, from Sunday afternoon, 22 September, through midday Wednesday, 25 September. The KBSE field is concerned with applying knowledge-based AI techniques to the problems of creating, understanding, and maintaining very large software systems.
Scheduling with neural networks: The case of the Hubble space telescope
Johnston, M. D. | Adorf, H.-M.
Creating an optimum long-term schedule for the Hubble Space Telescope is difficult by almost any standard due to the large number of activities, many relative and absolute time constraints, prevailing uncertainties and an unusually wide range of timescales. This problem has motivated research in neural networks for scheduling. The novel concept of continuous suitaility functions defined over a continuous time domain has been developed to represent soft temporal relationships between activities. All constraints and preferences are automatically translated into the weights of an appropriately designed artificial neural network. The constraints are subject to propagation and consistency enhancement in order to increase the number of explicitly represented constraints.

On the subjective meaning of probability
Pragmatism, taken not just as a philosophical movement but as a way of addressing problems, strongly influenced the debate on the foundations of probability during the first half of the twentieth century. Upholders of different interpretations of probability such as Hans Reichenbach, Ernest Nagel, Rudolf Carnap, Frank Ramsey, and Bruno de Finetti, acknowledged their debt towards pragmatist philosophers, including Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, Clarence Irving Lewis, William Dewey and Giovanni Vailati. In addition, scientist-philosophers like Ernst Mach, Ludwig Boltzmann, Henri Poincarรฉ, Pierre Duhem, and Karl Pearson, who heralded a conception of science and knowledge at large that was close to pragmatism, were very influential in that debate. Among the main interpretations of probability - frequentism, propensionism, logicism and subjectivism -, the latter is no doubt the closest to the pragmatist outlook. This paper concentrates on three representatives of the subjective theory, namely Frank Ramsey, Bruno de Finetti and รmile Borel.
