This is the second of two special issues focusing on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and operations research (OR) techniques for solving hard computational problems, with an emphasis on planning and scheduling. Both the AI and the OR community have developed sophisticated techniques to tackle such challenging problems. OR has relied heavily on mathematical programming formulations such as integer and linear programming, while AI has developed constraint-based search techniques and inference methods. Recently, we have seen a convergence of ideas, drawing on the individual strengths of these paradigms.
