Abstract: In this paper, we view planning as a special case of reasoning about indefinite actions. We treat actions as predicates defined over a linear temporal order. This formalism permits the representation of concurrent activity. Suppose we have a set of abstract actions defined by Horn clauses from a set of basic actions. Let us assume that an abstract action / has occurred, and ask whether a given condition OE is entailed by all the basic actions that constitute /. A countermodel to this... (Update)

...notions of a database or a query, and they do not support named procedures, such as subroutines and views. McCarty and Van der Meyden. In [MvdM92] McCarty and Van der Meyden develop a theory for reasoning about indefinite actions. This work is orthogonal to T R. The main...

...hardly assign a satisfactory semantics to all programs. McCarty [68] describes a deontic action language, combining the action language in [69] and his pioneering deontic language [67] which emerged from the TAXMAN project [66] It has deontic operators similar as ours....
