Thank you for your deeply explaination. 

So I want to know if using Jess(a rule engine) I can create an AI Plan? It
is only necessary to create my rules and facts and this will be my plan or
problem I misunderstand the concept of AI planning? 

Is there here anybody that have created an AI plan using Jess? 
Thank you so much,
Daniela

An "algorithm" is a description of the sequence of steps you follow to do
something. Jess (as Rob points out) uses the Rete algorithm to match rules
to facts and fire them -- but that doesn't mean that the Rete algorithm is
what you're using to plan.

If you're using a rule engine as a planner, then your planning algorithm is
some kind of search -- but exactly which kind of search depends on the
nature of your rules and also on the conflict resolution strategy you're
using. It might be a depth-first search, it might be a breadth-first search,
and it might be somewhere in-between. It likely is a a "guided search", with
some truncation of the search tree via heuristic methods.

Which is a long-winded way of saying that this is really a question you have
to answer for yourself, but if you can't, then the answer is "heuristic
guided search."
