Abstract
In this paper, we consider a distributed robotic system that includes special agents that convey the information. We address the issue of selecting one course from two;a long one-way detour or a short two-way path on which traffic jams may occur. We consider a system in which the environment, instead of mobile agents, learns feasible parameters for task execution. To correct problems with this system and improve it we introduce media agents that carry data for the learning. They adjust information flow. We formulate the system and evaluate its performance.
