This is demonstration of Nonlin running in Poplog First, going to change the
directory where Nonlin is located, and then load the source file.
We're offered the choice of loading a critical path calculation package which
we're going to do. There's some errors in it in certain versions of Poplog, we can
just ignore that. And then, we look at the main menu which is called TF Info.
We'll load a new TF file, in this case, it's going to be block
zero, block zero. Which is a demonstration of the Sussman,
and normally block second problem. And now, we'll give the goal schemer,
which is to plan for the goal on AB and the goal on BC.
So, we're going to make a stack of blocks.
And that's the plan already created. There's some diagnostics that are showing
while the expansion was taking place. So, we're going to look at the results
network. We'll go through all of the different
options here. So we're looking at the main results
network, it's got a few dummy nodes and so on in
there and we can get a cleaner version just with the actions only.
We're showing there the predecessors and successors of each, each node.
And then, we're going to look at the critical path data.
But in this case, the data is all zeroed out because there is no data in it.
Then, we're looking at the goal structure table and the table of multiple effects.
We'll look at any initial context in the plan and the, the, initial state for the
plan. And we can do a simulation of what the
state looks like at any point in the plan.
In this case, we'll just look at it at the end node.
So, this is the state at the end of the plan having been executed.
We'll load a new domain now. In this case, it's going to be a house
building task with some critical path method data in it,
some durations and times. So we'll set up a task for this one which
is just to build a house, to expand a top-level action of building the house.
And again, that's plan created so we'll just look at the results.
And again, we're going to through all the options.
We'll just see the main results network with all of the dummy nodes in, in place.
And we'll look at it just cleaned just with the actions.
And then, we'll going to look at it with the critical path method data which will
give us the durations, the early finishes, and the late finishes for each
node. And the start, the role starts means it's
on the critical path. And again, we're looking at the gold
structure table, and the table of multiple effects.
And again, the initial context there is none in this case.
And then, we'll look at the context of a particular node doing a node simulation.
In this case, again, we'll look at the state at the end of the plan.
