The document discusses knowledge engineering for automated planning. It describes GIPO, a graphical interface and tools environment for building planning domain models. GIPO allows users to create and validate planning domain models through a GUI. It features tools to help with initial model acquisition and validation. The goal of GIPO is to make the technology of automated planning more usable and available.
