The first comparative examination of planning paradigms
This text begins with the principle that the ability to anticipate
and plan is an essential feature of intelligent systems, whether
human or machine. It further assumes that better planning results
in greater achievements. With these principles as a foundation,
Planning in Intelligent Systems provides readers with the tools
needed to better understand the process of planning and to become
better planners themselves.
The text is divided into two parts:
* Part One, "Theoretical," discusses the predominant schools of
thought in planning: psychology and cognitive science,
organizational science, computer science, mathematics, artificial
intelligence, and systems theory. In particular, the book examines
commonalities and differences among the goals, methods, and
techniques of these various approaches to planning. The result is a
better understanding of the process of planning through the
cross-fertilization of ideas. Each chapter contains a short
introduction that sets forth the interrelationships of that chapter
to the main ideas featured in the other chapters.
* Part Two, "Practical," features six chapters that center on a
case study of The Netherlands Railways. Readers learn to apply
theory to a real-world situation and discoverhow expanding their
repertoire of planning methods can help solve seemingly intractable
problems.
All chapters have been contributed by leading experts in the
various schools of planning and carefully edited to ensure a
consistent high standard throughout.
This book is designed to not only expand the range of planning
tools used, but also to enable readers to use them more
effectively. It challenges readers to look at new approaches and
learn from new schools of thought. Planning in Intelligent Systems
delivers effective planning approaches for researchers, professors,
students, and practitioners in artificial intelligence, computer
science, cognitive psychology, and mathematics, as well as industry
planners and managers.
