| Research Type | Experimental | In Section 7, we conduct a two-part empirical evaluation of MA-LAMA. First, we evaluate MA-LAMA s coverage and plan quality performance in different domains. Subsequently, we analyze its search efficiency by comparing runtime with the quality of the generated plans in complex scenarios. |

| Pseudocode | Yes | Algorithm 1 Agent Decomposition (AD) Input: MAP temporal task, ๐๐๐๐ ๐, ๐ผ,๐บ,๐, ๐, ๐ , where ๐is the multi-valued variables set, ๐ผis the initial state, ๐บis the goals set, ๐is the operators set, ๐is the multi-valued numeric variables set and ๐is the metric. |
| Open Source Code | No | No explicit statement about code release or repository link found. |
| Open Datasets | Yes | We test the performance of MA-LAMA through a MA temporal domains test bench, which comprises the MA temporal Exploration domain and all IPC temporal domains [12] that present MA features. ...

| Dataset Splits | No | The paper refers to planning problems from IPC temporal domains as test cases (e.g., 'Taxis (20)', 'Rovers (20)') but does not specify training/test/validation splits in the traditional machine learning sense for these problem sets. The entire set of problems is used for evaluation. |
| Hardware Specification | No | All executions are limited to 10 minutes and 4GB of RAM. |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper mentions several planners and languages used (e.g., LAMA [45], PDDL2.1 [20]), but does not provide specific version numbers for any of them. |
| Experiment Setup | Yes | All executions are limited to 10 minutes and 4GB of RAM. ... The metric used is a weighted combination of battery usage and mission risk, similar to the one defined in Figure 3. ... The metric aims to minimize the overall sum, favoring UAV operations by assigning them lower penalty values compared to ROVER actions. |
