Recenzje

From the reviews:

"The overarching theme of reasoning about actions frames the collection of diverse papers presented in this book. Four main themes are covered: logic, search, artificial intelligence (AI) planning, and applications. ... Overall, the book provides interesting information about the field of logic-based action representation and reasoning. It is an ideal beginning book for any researcher coming into the field." (Aladdin Ayesh, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (4), April, 2008)
