The Jumpbot Domain for Numeric Planning

The Jumpbot domain for numeric planning with instantaneous actions models a walking robot that has to reach a target region by jumping over water ditches. The kinematic of the robot is modeled by its current position and velocity vector. The planner has to reason about the correct accelerations, rotations, velocities, jump positions and space for the deceleration. This domain description provides a set of benchmark instances for numeric planning in an area which is underrepresented by prevailing benchmarks: the use of numeric variables to model physical properties as opposed to their use for modeling resources.
