APPROPRIATE COMMITMENT PLANNING FOR AUV CONTROL∗

We propose a method for reactive mission planning in dynamic environments that also allows for ap-propriate commitments to future actions and goals.

Description
Summary:We propose a method for reactive mission planning in dynamic environments that also allows for ap-propriate commitments to future actions and goals. We consider appropriate commitments to be those based on predictable features of the situation and environment that are unlikely to change. By orga-nizing other actions based on these commitments, we hope to create a planner that is able not only to react quickly to unanticipated events, but also coor-dinate its actions with other agents, handle newly-arising goals, and perform missions efficiently and effectively. This approach to mission planning is currently being implemented in the Orca 3 AUV Mission Planner.
