  • Abstract
    This paper presents our program in B-Prolog submitted to the third ASP solver competition for the Sokoban problem. This program, based on dynamic programming, treats Sokoban as a generalized shortest path problem. It divides a problem into independent sub problems and uses tabling to store sub problems and their answers. This program is very simple but quite efficient. Without use of any sophisticated domain knowledge, it easily solved 11 of the 15 instances used in the competition.
