Abstract : |
O-Plan2 is an AI planning architecture which supports research into a number of aspects of planning, scheduling and control. It is based on earlier work on the O-Plan System which was directed towards plan generation. The paper explores the different types of choice ordering decisions which need to be made in an architecture for command and control. The mechanisms for choice ordering and selection in the original O-Plan system were found to be too general for efficient use for all purposes. The paper describes a number of choice ordering mechanisms provided in the O-Plan2 Architecture which provide specialised mechanisms more suited to the range of different ordering problems that arise in planning, scheduling and control applications. 1, |
