Generating Abstractions

Abstract

The previous chapter described how an abstraction hierarchy can be used for problem solving and showed that the use of abstraction can provide a significant reduction in search. However, several important questions have yet to be addressed: What are the characteristics of a useful abstraction? How do we find useful abstraction hierarchies?
