In this paper, we report on a new solver for large instances of the Disjunctive Temporal Problem (DTP). Our solver is based primarily on the idea of employing "compact" ...
We address the problem of coordinating the plans and schedules for a team of agents in an uncertain and dynamic environment. Bounded rationality, bounded communication, subjectivi...
In this paper we face the Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Sequence Dependent Setup Times by means of a genetic algorithm hybridized with local search. We have built on a previous...
In recent work we showed that models constructed from planner performance data over a large suite of benchmark problems are surprisingly accurate; 91-99% accuracy for success and ...

The heuristics used for planning and search often take the pattern databases generated from abstracted versions of the given state space. Pattern databases are typically stored p ...
We present a complex scheduling problem where we want to plan meetings between customers and exhibitors at a trade event. One cause of the complexity of the problem is the general...
High dimensionality of belief space in DEC-POMDPs is one of the major causes that makes the optimal joint policy computation intractable. The belief state for a given agent is a p...
During the past few years, point-based POMDP solvers have gradually scaled up to handle medium sized domains through better selection of the set of points and efficient backup met...

We consider a generalization of the PDB homomorphism abstractions to what is called "structural patterns". The bais in abstracting the problem in hand into provably trac...
Planning as heuristic search is a powerful approach to solving domain independent planning problems. In recent years, various successful heuristics and planners like FF, LPG, FAST...
