AI (artificial intelligence) planning is an important branch of artificial intelligence. Planning decomposition is an important topic of intelligent planning research, which plays a key role in improving planning speed and reducing the scale of planning expansion. The decomposition algorithm in intelligent planning is studied extensively and deeply, and the development history is introduced comprehensively. This paper expounds and analyzes the general forms of planning decomposition, and classifies the planning decomposition from various situations, in which key methods and popular applications of planning decomposition are mainly introduced. The main contents and advantages of the decomposition method are introduced from the aspects of traditional methods, abstraction levels, constraint satisfaction problems, sub-objective ordering, etc. Application areas include improvements in planning algorithms, multi-agent systems, software test-case generation, large Markov decision processes, etc. This paper summarizes the problems and deficiencies of the existing planning decomposition, and analyzes the future direction.
