    • A Heterarchical Program for Recognition of Polyhedra 

      Shirai, Yoshiaki (MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1972-06)
      Recognition of polyhedra by a heterarchical program is presented. The program is based on the strategy of recognizing objects step by step, at each time making use of the previous results. At each stage, the most obvious ...
    • A Planning System for Robot Construction Tasks 

      Fahlman, Scott E. (MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-05)
      This paper describes BUILD, a computer program which generates plans for building specified structures out of simple objects such as toy blocks. A powerful heuristic control structure enables BUILD to use a number of ...
    • Tradeoffs in Designing a Parallel Architecture for the Apiary 

      Manning, Carl R. (MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1984-12)
      The Apiary is an abstract computer architecture designed for performing computation based on the idea of message passing between dynamic computational objects called actors. An apiary connotes a community of worker bees ...
