title = "Parallel search algorithms for robot motion planning",
abstract = "In this paper we show that parallel search techniques derived from their sequential counterparts can enable the solution of instances of the robot motion planning problem which are computationally infeasible on sequential machines. We present a parallel version of a robot motion planning algorithm based on 'quasi best first' search with randomized escape from local minima and random backtracking and discuss its performance on a problem instance which was computationally infeasible on a single processor of an nCUBE22 multicomputer. We also discuss the limitations of parallel robot motion planning systems, and suggest a course for future work.",
