Minimum Commitment Strategy

The Minimum Commitment Strategy refers to the method of waiting as long as possible in a planning or execution phase to bind variables or make decisions toward a goal. This is done in order to utilize as much information as possible, attempting to ensure the best possible action at the necessary time. This strategy relies on the notion that not all of the necessary knowledge will be available at any given plan time, so waiting could make more knowledge available and ensure a better plan.
