Abstract

In this extended abstract, we briefly recall the background, aims and format of the Intention Progression Competition, describe the format and generation of the test problems used to evaluate entries, and outline the architecture of the competition software.

The first edition of the Intention Progression Competition is supported by the University of Nottingham School of Computer Science.
