=================================================================
Logtalk - Object oriented extension to Prolog
Release 2.29.1
Copyright (c) 1998-2006 Paulo Moura. All Rights Reserved.
=================================================================
To load this example and for sample queries, please see the SCRIPT file.
You will also need to load the following files in the library directory:
dates_loader, types_loader, events_loader, metapredicates_loader, and
hierarchies_loader. Alternatively, you can just load the library all_loader
file.
Some of the code in this folder is adopted, with permission, from the book
"Prolog Programming for Artificial Intelligence" by Ivan Bratko.
For a description of the search problems, please see a classical AI book
(such as the one above) or visit the url <http://www.plastelina.net/games>.
This example defines two hierarchies of objects, one for representing
state-spaces and another for representing search methods:
state_space
farmer
water_jug
salt(Quantity, Measure1, Measure2)
heuristic_state_space
bridge
eight_puzzle
miss_cann
search_strategy
blind_search(Bound)
breadth_first(Bound)
depth_first(Bound)
heuristic_search(Threshold)
best_first(Threshold)
hill_climbing(Threshold)
Taken together, these two hierarchies implement a framework for solving
state-space search problems in Logtalk. There is also a monitor object,
"performance", which tries to measure the time taken to find a solution,
the branching factor while searching for a solution, and the number of
transitions made to find a solution.
