	abstract = {Although the narrative structure of common entertainment products like Hollywood movies or TV series is generally composed of a number of different plot lines combined into a single narrative discourse, efforts on computational modeling of story generation have to this point focused mostly on the construction of stories with a single plot line. The present paper explores an evolutionary solution to the task of building a story that combines more than one plot line into a single linear discourse. This requires: a set of knowledge resources that capture the main features that influence the decisions involved, a representation suitable for evolutionary treatment for discourses with several plot lines, and a set of fitness functions based on metrics related to the quality of the resulting discourses. The proposed solution produces populations of stories with elaborate discourses that combine several subplots.},

	abstract = {Many of the stories at the core of narrative entertainment involve a number of plot lines that combine to give them interest.
The present paper sets out to solve the problem of how several different plot lines, each one of them complete in its own sense, can be combined into a single linear sequence that works reasonably well as a plot. Starting from a brief review of how existing storytelling systems address the task, a representation for plots and plot templates is proposed that allows the combination of several subplots into a single plot line. Four strategies for weaving plots are proposed, two taken from literary studies and two computational baselines, and a formative evaluation of a set of stories produced by these solutions is presented. Finally, open issues, promising avenues of future work and the relation to previous work are discussed.},

The construction of INES pursues a double goal: to develop a more complete version of Charade, by including a plot generation stage; and to show the capability of Afanasyev as scaffolding for building united systems from sources of diverse kind. From a broad view, the resulting architecture is a microservice-oriented ecosystem in which every significant stage of the story generation process is implemented by a microservice that can be easily replaced by another, as long as the new microservice keeps the interface contract established by the Afanasyev model.},

The selected architectural approach is the microservices model, because it provides a very convenient way for structuring the functional responsibilities in the architecture, and promotes a distributed strategy for solving complex problems.
The communication between the services is based on the well-known REST architectural model. This approach aims at simplifying the communication process by means of a easily achievable representation of the information.},
