Abstract

Design-to-Criteria builds custom schedules for agents that meet hard temporal constraints, hard resource constraints, and soft constraints stemming from soft task interactions or soft commitments made with other agents. Designto-Criteria is designed specifically for online application - it copes with exponential combinatorics to produce these custom schedules in a resource bounded fashion. This enables agents to respond to changes in problem solving or the environment as they arise.
