A large increase in processing power has come from parallel machines, but taking advantage of this power is challenging. In this paper we address the issues in designing planners for real-time AI and robotic applications, and provide guiding principles. These principles were designed to minimize the difference between the new real-time model and the standard off-line model. Applying these prinCiples yields a better-structured application, easier design and implementation, and improved performance. The focus of the paper is on a design methodology for implementing effective planners in real-world applications. Using Ephor (our runtime environment), and applying the described planner principles, we demonstrate improved performance in a real-world shepherding application.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1995/9","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1995/0009.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1995/9.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1995/bibtex/9","volume":{"slug":"1995","title":"Proceedings of the Fourteenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1995","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1995/","year":1995,"location":"Montréal, Québec, Canada","dates":"","editors":"Chris S.
