26   A Promising Genetic Algorithm Approach to Job-Shop Scheduling.. - Fang, Ross, Corne (1993)   (Correct)
The general job-shop scheduling problem is known to be extremely hard. We describe a GA approach which produces reasonably good results very quickly on standard benchmark job-shop scheduling problems,... / Dave Corne Department of Artificial Intelligence University of Edinburgh

26   Implementing Calendars and Temporal Rules in Next Generation Databases - Chandra, Segev, Stonebraker (1994)   (Correct)
In applications like financial trading, scheduling, manufacturing and process control, time based predicates in queries and rules are very important. There is also a need to define sets of time points... / Many researchers in the artificial intelligence community have studied

26   A Generalization of Analytic Deduction via Labelled Deductive Systems .. - D'Agostino, Gabbay (1995)   (Correct)
In this series of papers we set out to generalize the notion of classical analytic deduction (i.e. deduction via elimination rules) by combining the methodology of Labelled Deductive Systems [Gab94] w... / logic in computer science artificial intelligence and logic programming. In

In this paper, we propose an architecture for an agent-based virtual market that includes all elements required for simulating a real market. These elements include a communication infrastructure, mec... /

26   A Linear Method for Deviation Detection in Large Databases - Arning, Agrawal, Raghavan (1996)   (Correct)
We describe the problem of finding deviations in large data bases. Normally, explicit information outside the data, like integrity constraints or predefined patterns, is used for deviation detection. ... / .
