Dean Martha Pollack paper named highly influential by professional group
(Apr 2008) A paper coauthored by SI Dean Martha E. Pollack has won a 2008 influential paper award from the International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (IFAAMAS).
The award recognizes papers published at least ten years ago that have had a significant impact on the research into the design of agent-based systems.
The paper, "Plans and resource-bounded practical reasoning," proposes a model of the processes by which agents -- human or computational -- can deal with multiple,
competing, asynchronous demands by forming and committing to plans. It appeared in the journal Computational Intelligence in 1988.
"An 'influential paper' award means the work has stood the test of time and has influenced a generation of researchers in the field," said SI Associate Dean for Research and Innovation Tom Finholt.
The award for the paper, which Pollack co-authored with Michael E. Bratman and David J. Israel, will be presented at the 2008 International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems in Portugal in May.
