On the Configuration of Robust Static Parallel Portfolios for Efficient Plan Generation

Automated Planning has achieved a significant step forward in the last decade, and many advanced planning engines have been introduced.Nowadays, increases in computational power are mostly achieved through hardware parallelisation. In view of the increasing availability of multicore machines and of the intrinsic complexity of designing parallel algorithms, a natural exploitation of parallelism is to combine existing sequential planning engines into parallel portfolios.In this work, we introduce three techniques for an automatic configuration of static parallel portfolios of planning engines. The aim of generated portfolios is to provide a good trade off performance between coverage and run time, on previously unseen problems. Our empirical results demonstrate that our techniques for configuring parallel portfolios combine strengths of planning engines, and fully exploit multicore machines
