Abstract
A system and method for generating a plan to complete a task by providing a framework facilitating use of heterogeneous data sources without altering a planning algorithm are disclosed. The method includes using a first dataset of logical atoms represented in predicate schema and second dataset of database atoms represented in non-predicate schema, and modifying a grammar rule, a domain definition, and a problem definition, and selecting and executing task methods and task operators to complete a task. Execution of task operator includes verifying a precondition, assigning variables with values when the precondition is valid, and modifying (delete and add) a plan state. Execution of the task method includes verifying a precondition of the task method, assigning variables with values when the precondition is valid, decomposing the task into sub-tasks, assigning arguments of task method to sub-tasks, and adding sub-tasks to a task list. Thereafter, a plan is generated.
