Planning and Model Checking are similar in concept. They both deal with reaching a goal state from an initial state by applying specified rules that allow for the transition from one state to another. Exploring the relationship between them is an interesting new research area. We are interested in planning frameworks that combine both planning and scheduling. For that, we focus our attention on real time model checking. As a first step, we developed a mapping from planning domain models into timed automata. Since timed automata are the representation structure of real-time model checkers, we are able to exploit what model checking has to offer for planning domains. In this paper we present the mapping algorithm, which involves translating temporal specifications into timed automata, and list some of the planning domain questions someone can answer by using model checking.
