Abstract

The paper addresses the problem of supervising the execution of a plan with durative actions in a just partially known world, where discrepancies between the expected conditions and the ones actually found may arise. The paper advocates a control architecture which exploits additional knowledge to prevent (when possible) action failures by changing the execution modality of actions while these are still in progress. Preliminary experimental results, obtained in a simulated space exploration scenario, are reported.
