Bringing AI Planning to the European AI On-Demand Platform (AIPlan4EU)

Automated planning is a decision-making technology for deciding how and when to act to achieve a desired objective. Planning has many application areas needing automated and optimal decisions, such as robotics or logistics. Despite being a mature technology, several obstacles hinder its adoption: it is hard for practitioners to identify the right technique, there are no shared industrial standards, and planning expertise is hard to acquire. The EU-funded AIPlan4EU project is a programme to make automated planning accessible for innovators and professionals throughout Europe. The project encompasses several use-cases in diverse domains, and will create a framework for automated planning integrated in the European AI On-Demand (AI4EU) Platform to suit the demands of users across Europe.
