Parallel Iterative A* Search: An Admissible Distributed Heuristic Search Algorithm
In this paper, a distributed heuristic search algorithm is presented. We show that the algorithm is admissible and give an informal analysis of its load balancing, scalability, an...

Focused Real-Time Dynamic Programming for MDPs: Squeezing More Out of a Heuristic
Real-time dynamic programming (RTDP) is a heuristic search algorithm for solving MDPs. We present a modified algorithm called Focused RTDP with several improvements. While RTDP ma...
