AIPS Workshop on Planning in Temporal Domains Foreword

Temporal planning is an important problem, as in many real world planning domains actions have different durations and the goals should be achieved by a specified deadline, or as soon as possible. This paper presents a novel approach to temporal planning that is based on Mixed Integer Programming. In the new framework, a temporal planning domain is modeled by two sets of linear inequalities. Th...
