Automatic Guided Vehicles or AGVs are increasingly being used in manufacturing plants for transportation tasks. Optimal scheduling of AGVs is a difficult problem. A learning AGV is very attractive in a manufacturing plant since it is hard to manually optimize the scheduling algorithm to each new situation.
