The research in hierarchical planning has made considerable progress in the last few years.
Many recent systems do not rely on hand-tailored advice anymore to find solutions, but are …

The majority of search-based HTN planning systems can be divided into those searching a
space of partial plans (a plan space) and those performing progression search, ie, that build …

HTN planning combines actions that cause state transition with grammar-like decomposition
of compound tasks that additionally restricts the structure of solutions. There are mainly two …

In this paper, we propose a novel SAT-based planning approach for hierarchical planning
by introducing the SAT-based planner totSAT for the class of totally-ordered HTN planning …

During the last years, much progress has been made in hierarchical planning towards
domain-independent systems that come with sophisticated techniques to solve planning …

Abstract In Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning, compound tasks need to be refined
into executable (primitive) action sequences. In contrast to their primitive counterparts …

Planning is the task of finding a sequence of actions that achieves the goal (s) of an agent. It
is solved based on a model describing the environment and how to change it. There are …

In HTN planning, the hierarchy has a wide impact on solutions. First, there is (usually) no
statebased goal given, the objective is given via the hierarchy. Second, it enforces actions to …

We analyse active space debris removal efforts from a strategic, game-theoretical
perspective. Space debris is non-manoeuvrable, human-made objects orbiting Earth, which …
