“…This is also justifiable according to the work of [38], who combine trip and task planning-where processes To justify the presented approach that the behavior of people in indoor and urban environments is similar regarding problem-solving-e.g., navigation-the authors utilize the concept of geodesign [42]. Goodchild [43] (p. 9) describes geodesign as follows:…”

“…Raubal and Worboys [21,22] describe the problem of pathfinding in indoor environments, which is strongly related to cognitive science. Abdalla et al [36][37][38] analyze trip planning, decision-making, and influences on spatial-temporal personal information management.…”

“…Their research work distinguishes three different levels on which decisions about navigation problems are made, i.e., the planning level, the instructional level, and the driver level. Abdalla and Frank [38] presented a combination of trip-and task planning, based on the example of "how to get a passport". In their paper, they decompose the overarching problem of "getting a passport" into sub-problems or tasks that have to be solved individually in a certain order.…”

“…In their paper, they decompose the overarching problem of "getting a passport" into sub-problems or tasks that have to be solved individually in a certain order. Additionally, references [36][37][38]41] show that the decomposition of spatial-temporal problems is also a matter of scale. This can be justified by the work of [41], where sub-problems (i.e., different levels) are modeled with a finer "resolution" of the representation of the universe of discourse.…”

“…Thus, Noulas, A., et al [6] strengthen the argument that the planning of tasks in an environment is related to trip planning (in this context, used as a specific process to reach a given objective). This is also justifiable according to the work of [38], who combine trip and task planning-where processes are planned accordingly.…”

Abstract:The concepts of "Smart Cities" and "Smart Manufacturing" are different data-driven domains, although both rely on intelligent information technology and data analysis. With the application of linked data and affordance-based approaches, both domains converge, paving the way for new and innovative viewpoints regarding the comparison of urban tasks with indoor manufacturing tasks. The present study builds on the work, who state that cities are scaled versions of each other, by extending this thesis towards indoor manufacturing environments. Based on their structure and complexity, these environments are considered to form ecosystems of their own, comparable to "small cities". This conceptual idea is demonstrated by examining the process of human problem-solving in transportation situations from both perspectives (i.e., city-level and manufacturing-level). In particular, the authors model tasks of human operators that are used to support transportation processes in indoor manufacturing environments based on affordances and spatial-temporal data. This paper introduces the fundamentals of the transformation process of outdoor tasks and process planning activities to indoor environments, particularly to semiconductor manufacturing environments. The idea is to examine the mapping of outdoor tasks and applications to indoor environments, and vice-versa, based on an example focusing on the autonomous transportation of production assets in a manufacturing environment. The approach is based on a spatial graph database, populated with an indoor navigation ontology and instances of indoor and outdoor objects. The results indicate that human problem-solving strategies can be applied to indoor manufacturing environments to support decision-making in autonomous transportation tasks.

Whenever a person gets lost and there is no way to access stored spatial information, e.g. in the form of maps, she needs to rely on the knowledge of other humans instead. This situation can be modelled as a communication setting where a person lacking spatial knowledge requests information from a knowledgeable source. The result are cognitive transactions in which information over various levels of detail (LoD) is negotiated. The overall goal is to agree on a shared spatial representation with equal semantics, i.e., a common ground. We present a communication model that accounts for establishing a common ground between two agents. The agents use a modified "wayfinding choreme" language and special signals to negotiate the LoD. Findings of a case study were used to verify and refine our work.
