Abstract

Our query planning application for system integration requires a backward partial-order planner able to deal with non-ground plans in the presence of state constraints. While many partial-order planners exist for the case of independent fluents, partial-order planning with dependent fluents is a significantly more complex problem, which we tackle in an abductive event calculus framework. We show that existing abductive procedures have nonminimality problems that are significant especially in our planning domain and propose an improved abductive procedure to alleviate these problems. We also describe a general transformation from an abductive framework to Constraint Handling Rules (CHRs), which can be used to obtain an efficient implementation.
