Hi all,

Gosh, it's been quite a long time since our last lispvan meeting!
Unfortunately, I've been traveling a lot in recent months and have had
a number of "minor home improvement" projects that got out of hand, so
I haven't had much free time (well, at least that's my excuse and I'm
sticking to it!).

For our July lispvan meeting, meeting, Robert Goldman (a senior
scientist at SIFT, LLC, a small research company in Minneapolis that
develops intelligent control systems) will be giving a condensed
version of the tutorial that he will be giving at the AAAI-07
conference here in Vancouver. His co-presenter Mark Boddy (an
internationally recognized expert in the theory and practice of
building planning and scheduling systems) may also be joining us.

Here's the "official" meeting notice:

Topic: Domain Modeling for Planning
Presenter: Robert Goldman (and, perhaps, Mark Boddy)
Date: Wednesday, July 25, 2007
Time: 7pm - 10pm (or whenever)
Venue: Think!, 4512 West 10th Ave., Vancouver (see map)
Summary: A condensed version of the "Domain Modeling for Planning"
tutorial that is being presented at the AAAI-07 conference in
Vancuver. Here is the summary from the AAAI site:

    "In this tutorial, we will present examples of modeling challenges
drawn from a broad range of practical applications, including computer
security, manufacturing, UAV control, and space operations, as well as
some of the domains used in the International Planning Competition.
For each of these applications, we will discuss and illustrate the
pros and cons of various modeling approaches, including PDDL, various
HTN schema representations (for example, SHOP2, ACT, O-Plan) logical
formalisms (TAL), and constraint-based representations such as NASA's
NDDL and LAAS' IxTeT input language."

So, come join us for a beer, a bite to eat, an interesting
presentation, and a chance to socialize with fellow lispers!

Any updates on the meeting will be posted to my blog entry:

Very interesting topic. Don't forget to post a video later. ;-)
