Reasoning about Action in Polynomial Time
Proceedings of the Fifteenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. Temporal Reasoning. Pages 1447-1452.
Abstract
Although many formalisms for reasoning about action exist, surprisingly few approaches have taken computational complexity into consideration. The contributions of this paper are the following: a temporal logic with a restriction for which deciding satisfiability is tractable, a tractable extension for reasoning about action, and NP-completeness results for the unrestricted problems. Many interesting reasoning problems can be modelled, involving nondeterminism, concurrency and memory of actions. The reasoning process is proved to be sound and complete.
