Title: Coordination of Distributed Problem Solvers
Author: Edmund H. Durfee
Publisher: Springer
Year: 1988
ISBN: 089838284X
Abstract: This book introduces partial global planning as a new approach to coordination. Unlike previous distributed AI approaches (which are specialized for particular situations) Durfee's approach provides a unified and versatile framework for coordinating independent nodes, viewing control as a planning task. Nodes build and revise tentative plans about both local and network problem solving; knowledge-based reasoning about coordination is an integral part of a node's local decision making.
