A Temporal Approach to Multiagent Planning with Concurrent Actions
Matthew Crosby · Edinburgh Research Explorer (University of Edinburgh) · 2013
The ability of temporal planners to find concurrent plans can potentially be exploited in multiagent planning with concurrent actions. However, in recent years temporal planning has not been very prevalent in the multiagent planning literature. This paper introduces a simple multiagent planning domain (with concurrent interacting actions) and shows how it can be efficiently translated to temporal planning. The performance of a temporal planner (POPF2) is then evaluated and shown to be a useful benchmark for future multiagent approaches.
