Abstract
We present a multi-agent distributed temporal scheduling system based on probabilistic Interval Algebra networks (i.e., PIA networks). The overall goal is to make each agent’s network consistent and optimal. Each agent is independent and has sole control over its network. But, it must communicate and coordinate with other agents when modifying or updating shared edges. We present an algorithm which allows the agents to collaboratively solve and recommend a temporal schedule. At the agent level, this schedule is optimal under the given local constraints. Although the global solution may not be optimal, we try to generate near optimal ones. Note that our distributed system is not centrally controlled. We use our system to solve scheduling problems from a university problem domain. We also describe the implementation of our proposed system which uses Java, JXTA, and JGraph.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
