Informed planner
-
Joe, a conscientious, informed planner, always gets his reports in before they’re due. His presentations sound like commodities futures reports, and his audience looks half asleep. Frank, also a planner, hands in reports at the last minute, and they’re not always complete. But when he speaks, people listen. He sounds as though he knows what he’s talking about. Clearly, Frank has an edge when it comes to plum assignments and even promotion. His advantage is the ability to make highly effective presentations to public officials, citizens, peers, and businesses....

As was acknowledged by O’Loughlin and Arkoudis (2009), whose research has informed this current research, generalising from a small sample size is problematic (this one is even smaller than the 63 students in O’Loughlin and Arkoudis’s study). Nevertheless, taken together with these researchers’ findings, tendencies can be discerned. Because this current study was conducted using only results obtained after 1 July 2007, when half band scores were recorded for Writing and Speaking, some finer distinctions in score change can be observed. ...

This report is ostensibly about land quality indicators (LQIs). However, anyone who reads it will find a useful compilation of advice, experience and opinion on why land quality information is important for sustainable development and how it can be used more effectively for planning and decision making. But the report also poses as many questions as it answers, which in itself reflects the diversity of viewpoints on indicators.

We translate sentence generation from TAG grammars with semantic and pragmatic information into a planning problem by encoding the contribution of each word declaratively and explicitly. This allows us to exploit the performance of off-the-shelf planners. It also opens up new perspectives on referring expression generation and the relationship between language and action.
