Research area of

Reasoning about Actions and Change


Research Articles Received for "Actions and Change"

The following articles have been received for the ETAI area "Reasoning about Actions and Change". Questions and comments about these articles are invited, similarly to the question period at the end of a paper presentation at a conference. Please click the word [interactions] to see the current interactions about the article, or to send your own debate contribution.

Each article goes through the following steps:

  1. Article is announced in the Newsletter and News Journal. This starts a three month period of review discussion.
  2. Author decides whether he or she wishes to have the article refereed for the ETAI, or not.
  3. If yes, the article is sent to confidential referees.
  4. The article is either accepted or not accepted for the ETAI.
The present list contains all articles that have been received and announced, under different headings depending on where they are in the review procedure. Contributions to the discussion are invited during all those stages.
