Step 1: Set Controls

  • In the demo/practice section, set the start and end vertices.
    • Start Vertex: Initial state for the beginning of the algorithm.
    • End Vertex: Goal state, heuristics are defined with respect to it.
    • Memory Limit: Maximum number of states that can be stored in memory.

Step 2: Start the Experiment

  • Click on the Start SMA* button to begin the experiment.

Step 3: Continuing with the Algorithm

  • View the central canvas and changes as you keep clicking the Next button. View the Information and Path History sections for more details.
