Abstract

This paper extends existing work on the use of default information to describe planning hierarchies in two ways. First, we present a completeness result showing that all hierarchical planners can be described using defaults. Second, we show that if the planning hierarchy is situation-dependent, the default description is likely to have substantial computational advantages over a more conventional approach.
