    Abstract
    In this paper, we introduce DiFF, a novel extension of the Fast Forward (FF) planning system. FF is a domain independent planner that employs a forward heuristic search. Its search strategy is an enforced form of hill climbing. In order to move to a more promising state, FF evaluates successor states without any particular order. In this paper, we introduce a new form of the enforced hill climbing, which we call directed enforced hill climbing, to enhance the efficiency of Fast Forward planning. This strategy evaluates successor states in the order recommended by an adaptive heuristic function. Our experimental results in several planning domains show a significant improvement in the...
