== Landmark heuristics ==

The original landmark heuristic was initially developed by Matthias Westphal as a semester project. It was later developed further by Silvia Richter, leading to the work described in the AAAI paper by Silvia Richter, Malte Helmert and Matthias Westphal. After that, Silvia Richter and Matthias Westphal developed the heuristics even former for their LAMA planner, which is described in detail in their JAIR paper. The LAMA implementation served as the basis for the work on admissible heuristics by Erez Karpas and Carmel Domshlak, which in turn was extended to a more general class of landmarks in the paper by Emil Keyder, Silvia Richter and Malte Helmert.
