Abstract: Automated planning is an important branch of artificial intelligence, which can be widely used in robot, industrial production, and commercial fields. A review is conducted on the temporal planning, which is a frontier and sub-area of automated planning, from three aspects: 1) temporal feature; 2) planning method; 3) applications. The conclusions are: 1) comparing with planning ability, the community has proposed sufficient temporal features; 2) for the time being, state space forward searching based on heuristics is our best choice; 3) researchers are still looking for more and better applications. This survey aims to provide basic concepts for students who are interested in temporal planning.

Key words: artificial intelligence, automated planning, temporal planning
