The system maintains a dialog and is able to understand situations which can be expressed as a series of sequential time-frames. Specific relevant questions are asked by the system when it is unable to succeed in a given task. It can also provide reasons for its previous actions.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/46","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/0046.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/46.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/bibtex/46","volume":{"slug":"1973","title":"Proceedings of the Third International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1973","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/","year":1973,"location":"Stanford, California, USA","dates":"20-23 August 1973","editors":"Nils J.
