Abstract

There are several works whose goal is to specify complete and sound planning systems based on general purpose theorem provers. Some planners implemented in this way can have a close correspondence with existing partialordered planning algorithms. To improve the efficiency of logic-based planners we would like to use some of the results achieved by the AI planning community over the past twenty years in terms of algorithm design. We claim that a knowledge level analysis of problem-solving methods for planning, can help to identify what is the role of each piece of knowledge in a system and provide a common language to map, classify and compare different systems. In this paper we analyze an abductive event calculus planner using a library of problemsolving methods for planning.
