Description:
Planning is a crucial skill for any autonomous agent, be it a
physically embedded agent, such as a robot, or a purely simulated
software agent. For this reason, planning, as a central research
area of artificial intelligence from its beginnings, has gained
even more attention and importance recently.
After giving a general introduction to AI planning, the book
describes and carefully evaluates the algorithmic techniques used
in fast-forward planning systems (FF), demonstrating their
excellent performance in many wellknown benchmark domains. In
advance, an original and detailed investigation identifies the
main patterns of… more…
