  4. Aims The aim of this project is to research and develop the enabling technology that will make intelligent planning technology generally accessible to the user community, and to prototype this technology by the creation of intelligent planning services targeted at the semantic web. OBJECTIVES: (a) create prototypes of an online 'planning service' that is capable of solving planning problems from a wide range of applications domains; (b) create prototypes of an online knowledge engineering service, capable of helping a user to acculmulate sufficient input to effectively use (a). .. Address the lack of Accessibility and Usability of the technology

  6. Feasibility Technology is maturing: Timely maturing of research areas: • Semantic Web • KE – knowledge sharing and re-use: KBS KE maturing eg aspiration of re-useable knowledge to be fulfilled by the promise of Online Ontologies • Planning language conventions • Planning KE: Some prototype platforms for KA/KE planning emerging (eg GIPO II) • Planning engines: a good range available and a growing understanding of their application area Applications Opening Up: • With the interest in eg Intelligent Agents, E-science etc there is a strong requirement for easy access to our technology

  7. Research / Development needed - research into Planning Ontology: including terms fordescribing the characteristics of domains,of plans, of actions etc - Web-based, knowledge-rich Domain Model Languages and Plan Languages need to be formulated and agreed, to be used as formats for knowledge interchange. • Application domain <-->Planner correspondence • Planner configuration generator, architectures formultiple planner configurations • Ontology languages for typical applicationdomains. • Research into re-using abstractdescriptions of types of domains to act astemplates for new domains - knowledge acquisition tools and methodologies - web infrastructure problems eg to do with the use ofKES remotely

  8. Input from commerce / industrial partners - example applications, - technology trials, evaluation, feedback, - knowledge of current technology, including related technologies and examples of the kinds of environment into which PLANSERVE may be embedded. - examples of 'conventional' processes in which PLANSERVE would provide assistance.

  9. PLAN • Agree on a statement of objectives • Map out work required to organisations • Draw up and submit a 5 page FET application BY – end April 2003
