This structure can be used to make control decisions that significantly reduce the amount of search required to solve a problem in a complex domain. We examine the utility of this approach in the context of a multi-le~el, cooperative knowledge source model of problem solving. We present a taxonomy of goal relationships for constructing partial topologies of the solution space and show that mechanisms using this information can be built as natural extensions of an integrated data-directed and goal-directed arc hitecture. Examples and performance results demonstrating how these additions improve the system's ability to evaluate potential activities are provided.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/80","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/0080.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/80.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/bibtex/80","volume":{"slug":"1989","title":"Proceedings of the Eleventh International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1989","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/","year":1989,"location":"Detroit, Michigan, USA","dates":"August 20-25 1989","editors":"N.
