Abstract
This paper describes the Entropy Reduction Engine, an architecture for the integration of planning, scheduling, and control. The architecture is motivated, presented, and analyzed in terms of its different components; namely, problem reduction, temporal projection, and situated control rule execution. Experience with this architecture has motivated the recent integration of learning, and this paper also describes the learning methods and their impact on architecture performance.Keywords
