ior-based robots, planning is necessary to elaborate abstract plans that resolve complex navigational tasks. Usually maps of the environment are used to plan the robot motion and t...
This article illustrates the complexities of real-world planning and how we can create AI planning systems to address them. We describe the IMACS Project (Interactive Manufacturab...
High-level formalisms such as stochastic Petri nets can be used to model complex systems. Analysis of logical and numerical properties of these models often requires the generatio...
