Abstract

Automated planning and scheduling continues to be an important part of artificial intelligence research and practice [6, 7, 11]. Many commonly-occurring scheduling settings include multiple stages and alternative resources, resulting in challenging combinatorial problems with high-dimensional solution spaces. The literature for solving such problems is dominated by specialized meta-heuristic algorithms.
