Abstract :
Work which focuses primarily on data structures called envelopes which are critical to the activities of monitoring plans and projecting their progress is presented. Envelopes have been implemented on an artificial intelligence (AI) planner for real-time control of forest fires (called PHOENIX) which generates plans, monitors them during execution, and revises them during execution when they go amiss. The utility of envelopes is illustrated in several examples from the PHOENIX environment and a hypothetical operational planning problem, i.e. military battlefield planning
