Abstract: |
This paper presents PGRT, a parallel
version of a best first planner based on the
Greedy Regression Tables approach. The
parallelization method of PGRT distributes
the task of extracting applicable actions to a
given state among the available processors.
Although the number of operators limits the
scalability of PGRT, it has proven to be quite
efficient for low scale parallelization. A
modified Operator Reordering method has
been used in order to achieve further increase
in the efficiency of the parallel algorithm. We
illustrate the speedup of PGRT on a variety
of hard logistics problems, adopted from the
AIPS-98 planning competition. |
