.... monitoring and control of a milling machine [Agogino and Ramamurthi, 1990] and monitoring and diagnosis of a scintillation array sensor [Paasch and Agogino, 1991] Researchers of AI planning systems have a renewed interest in modeling uncertain worlds, e.g. Martin, 1992; Haddawy and Hanks, 1990; Dean and Wellman, 1989; Wellman and Doyle, 1991; Etzioni, 1991; Etzioni et al. 1992; Russell and Wefald, 1991] and understanding real world time signals, e.g. Hayes Roth et al. 1992; Lesser et al. 1993] Bayes nets also have been applied to natural language understanding [Charniak and Goldman, 1991] 5.2 ....

.... take into account qualitative goals, generic preferences, and the changeability of preferences, but also the usual approaches to planning and learning, so as to relate their goals and methods to preferences and to base their decisions on decision theoretic information rather than ad hoc rules (see [18]) Qualitative decision theory seeks to adapt or extend traditional decision theoretic and analytic concepts to a broader context, building whenever possible on existing strengths. Doing this requires facing up to the limitations of traditional decision theoretic conceptual tools. In some cases, ....

.... actually defining what constitutes a goal or a a satisficing solution to a given planning problem requires taking into account an agent s preferences over outcomes [6] Of late there have appeared a number of proposals for reconciling goal directed and utility directed decision making strategies [5, 9, 20]. This paper provides a particular method for using goals to direct search while at the same time using expected utility to select among plans that have been determined to achieve goals with some probability. At each point in execution, our method chooses a plan, executes the first step in that ....

.... resources by using expectations about the performance of decision making procedures and preferences over the outcomes resulting from applying those procedures [4, 6] We have also provided a basic framework for planning systems that employ decision theoretic techniques to evaluate plans [15, 16] and to perform probabilistic prediction [12, 14, 13] The main thread of our recent research in time critical planning and scheduling is concerned with decision making under uncertainty. Of particular interest are problems in which the notion of risk is complicated by limitations on time to plan ....
