In this paper we describe IPSS (Integrated Planning and Scheduling System), a domain independent solver that integrates an AI heuristic planner, that synthesizes courses of actions...
We define the robustness of a sequential plan as the probability that it will execute successfully despite uncertainty in the execution environment. We consider a rich notion of u...
Interacting agents that interleave planning and execution must reach consensus on their commitments to each other. In domains where agents have varying degrees of interaction and ...
Simulation is an essential tool for performance evaluation of many practical systems where planners typically want to know how the system will perform under various parameter sett...
Over the last few years there has been a revival of interest in the idea of least-commitment planning with a number of researchers returning to the partial-order planning approach...
