Abstract
Reasoning about how much to generate when space is limited is a challenge for generation systems. This paper presents two algorithms that exploit the discourse structure to decide which content to drop when there are space restrictions, in the context of producing documents from pre-authored text fragments. We analyse the effectiveness of both algorithms and show that the second is near optimal.
