Delivering Intelligent Planning Information to Mobile Devices Users in Collaborative Environments

The use of mobile devices is becoming increasingly more frequent. Although very limited, these devices now have capacities for running more advanced systems. Opportunities for developing applications using artificial intelligence have emerged with the release of APIs that are not aimed at proprietary platforms, such as J2ME. This paper discusses some approaches of artificial intelligence planning aimed at mobile computing and subsequently presents an approach to delivering intelligent planning information to users of mobile devices that are participating in collaborative planning environments. Access to planning information by human agents on the move can improve several aspects of planning processes, including collaboration.
