Proposal for a Planning Approach for Information Seeking

Contents

The information seeking process which includes several phases is a dynamic, iterative, and interactive process where the user plays an important role. Because the first query given by the user normally may be vaguely stated or ill-defined, it often must be reformulated. For avoiding the generation of a new plan when the user modifies the query we propose the use of a planning architecture that combines partial-order planning with dependence maintenance.
