How can we optimise Multi-Agent Pathfinding in Delivery Warehouses
Research Needed
Different Algorithms that are already deployed
Who would need/benefit from these systems
What can we gain from automating these mundane tasks
What ethical impacts will this technology have?
Are jobs lost?
Are skills/trades forgotten?
Will this cause a divide in education?
Where would this be used? What obstacles are there?
What is the scope of the MAPF problem, is it much more ambitious that normal pathfinding.
Source Evaluation
Who made the article?
Is it reliable?
What evidence do they use?
What are their conclusions?
Are their conclusions biased?
Why was it made?
Have they been biased?
Were they sponsored?
CRAAP Test
Can be used to then evaluate the sources.
