Storing Prepared Traces in Memory

Once the trace has been summarized, optimized, and fragmented, the last step is to store the information into collective memory. When plan fragments are stored in memory, they are indexed by the goal they achieve and a description of relevant role fillers. The description is an abstraction and includes a list of predicates that characterize agents, objects, and instruments relevant to the fragment. These predicates are used to determine the similarity of future settings to the stored plan.
