Planning and Choosing: Augmenting HTN-Based Agents with Mental Attitudes ∗ (2009)
Gerhard Wickler, Stephen Potter, Austin Tate, Michal Pěchouček, Eduard Semsch
This paper describes a new agent framework that fuses an HTN planner, through its underlying conceptual model, with the mental attitudes of the BDI agent architecture, thus exploiting the strengths...
Antonín Komenda, Gerhard Wickler
We present an approach to distributed planning and coordination architecture for dynamic non-deterministic multiactor mixed-initiative environment. The system provides flexible planning, replanning,...

Abstract Information-Gathering: From Sensor Data to Decision Support in Three Simple Steps (2009)
Gerhard Wickler, Stephen Potter
In this paper we describe the information-gathering problem which can be characterized as transforming large amounts of data obtained from sensors into accurate, concise, timely and meaningful...
Using Simulation for Decision Support: Lessons Learned from FireGrid (2009)
Wickler, Gerhard, Beckett, George, Han, Liangxiu, Koo, Sung Han, Potter, Stephen, Pringle, Gavin, ...
This paper describes some of the lessons learned from the FireGrid project. It starts with a brief overview of the project. The discussion of the lessons learned that follows is intended for others...
Abstract Competence and Capability Assessment (2008)
This paper discusses the competence and capability assessment problems, the di erences between them, and a uni ed method to solve them. Competence can be assessed by exploiting meta-rules present in...
Capability Assessment in ucpop: Some Experiments in the Blocks World (2008)
This paper de nes and addresses the competence and capability assessment problem. A simple method based on the meta-knowledge available in a reasoning system is given that can be used to assess...

Using the Constraint Model as a Shared Representation of Intentions for Emergency Response (2006)
Wickler, Gerhard, Tate, Austin, Potter, Stephen
The aim of this paper is to describe the I-X system with its underlying representation: . The latter can be seen as a description of an agent’s intentions, which can be shared and communicated...

Capability representations for brokering: A survey (1998)
In this article we review knowledge representation formalisms that lend themselves to the representation of capabilities of intelligent agents. The aim of representing capabilities is, of course,...
