A multi-component framework for planning and scheduling integration
Amedeo Cesta, Simone Fratini, Federico Pecora · 2007
This paper presents our recent work on OMPS, a new timeline-based software architecture for planning and scheduling whose features support software development for space mission planning applications. The architecture is based on the notions of domain components and is deeply grounded on constraint-based reasoning. Components are entities whose properties may vary in time and which model one or more physical subsystems which are relevant to a given planning context. Decisions can be taken on components, and constraints among decisions modify the components ’ behaviors in time.
