Abstract

This is a table (first used in the NOAH planner) relating patterns (representing facts) to nodes in a plan where they are asserted or denied. It is used by nonlinear planners <154> to detect quickly interferences between actions on parallel branches. However, it can also be used to recognise beneficial side effects which may allow other goals to be satisfied without introducing new actions.
