The procedure can be used for temporal prediction, temporal postdiction, and also for plan generation. The basic method for the procedure is to operate on a working set of partial interpretations, and to gradually strengthen these partial interpretations until they are minimal models for the given axioms.}, IDANR = {LiTH-IDA-R-89-39}, NOTE = {Also published in Z.
