Question:

Exercise 3.13 The depth-first branch and bound of Figure 3.11 (page 99) is like a depth-bounded search in that it only finds a solution if there is a solution with cost less than bound. Show how this can be combined with an iterative deepening search to increase the depth bound if there is no solution for a particular depth bound. This algorithm must return ⊥ in a finite graph if there is no solution. The algorithm should allow the bound to be incremented by an arbitrary amount and still return an optimal (least-cost) solution when there is a solution.
