Real World Problems

We address in this paper a problem of autonomous agents performing in a common environment where each agent has a goal to achieve before a given deadline. Each agent must determine a local plan and then react properly to the local plans of other agents before a given deadline. The solution presented consists in using progressive planning that adapts the detail of local plans according to local deadlines, and progressive negotiation that organizes conflicts between local plans into categories and solves them progressively from a mandatory category to an optional one. This structuration of conflicts in categories contributes in solving first, the most important conflicts in order to guarantee, when it is possible, the coordination of the mandatory part of the plan before the deadline. Our negotiation model is based on the modified PGP (Partial Global Planning) approach, named Partial Global Progressive Planning (PGPP), which is an incremental strategy to insert partial local plans progressively one by one. This strategy consists in discarding optional partial local plans of an agent when a deadline is exceeded or global consistency is violated. We show that this approach reduces the costs of detecting and solving conflicts. This approach can be seen as a step towards the application of contract-net type systems to real-world problems.

Post Tensioned

In unbonded, post-tensioned prestressed concrete slabs and beams, corrosion of prestressed tendons due to moisture ingress and their subsequent breakage has been identified as a major problem raising serious concern over the safety of aged structures. The paper presents a practical Bayesian approach to reliability assessment of such structures based on the inspection of a randomly selected sample of prestressing tendons. To minimize inspection costs, clear guidelines are presented for selecting the minimum sample size necessary to demonstrate that the annual probability of failure of an existing structure is below the target value of 10−5, implied in the Canadian Standards Association concrete design code CAN3-A23.3-M84. A systematic and cost-effective incremental strategy is developed for inspection of existing prestressed concrete structures. Key words: reliability, Bayes theorem, prestressed concrete, unbonded post-tensioned system, inspection, corrosion, probability distribution, CSA Standard CAN3-A23.3-M84, slab.
