Dynamic Aircraft Carrier Flight Deck Task Planning based on HTN

摘要
In the operating environment of naval aircraft carrier, the move towards an increasing unmanned operational tempo with a reduced manning environment will request more automation in the planning and scheduling of aircraft, ground vehicles, and crew. This paper investigates the aircraft carrier deck operations planning problem based on Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning method. An HTN based dynamic operations planning process is proposed. A feasible action plan could be rapidly derived to complete a set of takeoff and landing tasks with the constraints of flight deck layout and limited resources such as catapults, elevators, and operators, etc. Corresponding to the newly generated tasks, the replanning process is triggered to cope with the changing conditions in highly dynamic environments.
