Patrik Haslum

Now a researcher at National ICT Australia (NICTA) in Canberra.

Also in the Diagnosis, Planning and Optimisation group in the Computer Science Lab at the Australian National University.

Formerly a PhD student at Linköpings Universitet.

...and still working on planning.

Publications

  • Patrik Haslum, "A New Approach To Tractable Planning". To appear in Proc. 18th International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling, 2008 (PDF).
    Note: There's an error in the paper. The first two cases for sequence rules in Table 1 should have N.max = min(N1.max, N2.max - N1.out, N3.max - (N1.out + N2.out)) (or at least something similar; the issue is that if N.out = 1, one of the N2.max and N3.max moves may already have been "consumed" (depending on where the move out originated) and N.max needs be adjusted accordingly).
