a river they wish to cross. There is a boat at the river’s edge, a river they wish to cross. There is a boat at the river’s edge, but, of course, only the farmer can row. The boat also can but, of course, only the farmer can row. The boat also can carry only two things, including the rower, at a time. If the wolf carry only two things, including the rower, at a time. If the wolf is ever left alone with the goat, the wolf will eat the goat; is ever left alone with the goat, the wolf will eat the goat; similarly if the goat is left alone with the cabbage, the goat will similarly if the goat is left alone with the cabbage, the goat will eat the cabbage. Devise a sequence of crossings of the river so eat the cabbage.

Goal-driven search in a production system.

CSC411CSC411 Artificial IntelligenceArtificial Intelligence 2525

Bidirectional search missing in both directions, resulting in excessive search.

CSC411CSC411 Artificial IntelligenceArtificial Intelligence 2626

Bidirectional search meeting in the middle, eliminating much of the space examined by unidirectional search.

Major advantages of production systems for artificial intelligence

• Separation of Knowledge and Control

• A Natural Mapping onto State Space Search

• Modularity of Production Rules

• Pattern-Directed Control

• Opportunities for Heuristic Control of Search

• Tracing and Explanation

• Language Independence

• A Plausible Model of Human Problem-Solving
