Problem Solving in Prodigy

Problem Solving in Prodigy

At the heart of Prodigy is a general problem-solver. Given a goal, some operators, and control rules, the problem-solver tries to find a path to the goal using the operators, restricted by the control rules. These search control rules can be used to specify different search methods, the default of which is means-ends analysis. An interesting property of Prodigy's problem-solver is casual commitment.
