This paper is focused on how a general-purpose hierarchical planning representation, based on the HTN paradigm, can be used to support the representation of oncology treatment pro...
The design of a hierarchical planning system in which each level operates in parallel and communicates asynchronously is presented. It is shown that this Parallel Hierarchical Repl...

High-level actions (HLAs) lie at the heart of hierarchical planning. Typically, an HLA admits multiple refinements into primitive action sequences. Correct descriptions of the ef...
We present a hierarchical planning system and its application to robotic manipulation. The novel features of the system are: 1) it finds high-quality kinematic solutions to task-l...
In this paper we describe SINERGY, which is a highly parallelizable, linear planning system that is based on the genetic programming paradigm. Rather than reasoning about the world...
