History
The planning method proposed by Dimopoulos, Nebel and Köhler is an early example of answer set programming. Their approach is based on the relationship between plans and stable models. Soininen and Niemelä applied what is now known as answer set programming to the problem of product configuration. The use of answer set solvers for search was identified as a new programming paradigm by Marek and Truszczyński in a paper that appeared in a 25-year perspective on the logic programming paradigm published in 1999 and in . Indeed, the new terminology of "answer set" instead of "stable model" was first proposed by Lifschitz in a paper appearing in the same retrospective volume as the Marek-Truszczynski paper.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“The disadvantage of men not knowing the past is that they do not know the present. History is a hill or high point of vantage, from which alone men see the town in which they live or the age in which they are living.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“It may be well to remember that the highest level of moral aspiration recorded in history was reached by a few ancient Jews—Micah, Isaiah, and the rest—who took no count whatever of what might not happen to them after death. It is not obvious to me why the same point should not by and by be reached by the Gentiles.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
