Programming tools of associative planning realization

This paper concerns research on new programming tools for solving some planning problems of goal-oriented activity. By example of geometric problem solver we describe the realization of the associative planning method for problem solving. We propose the algorithm of resembling situations searching, which is based on compiling of stereotype situation's descriptions to the special net. The criteria of stereotypes' selection for effective planning are discussed. The paper contains solutions of intellectual multi-step problems as examples of associative planning method's application.
