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
