Abstract

This article discusses the complexities of real-world planning and how to create planning systems to address them. IMACS (Interactive Manufacturability Analysis and Critiquing System), an automated designer's aid, evaluates machined parts and suggests design modifications to improve their manufacturability, offering advantages over the planning techniques used in classical planning systems
