Abstract

We study a combinatorial problem inspired by the following scenario: fully autonomous vehicles drive on a multi-lane (m2m \geq 2) road. Each vehicle heads to its own destination and is allowed to exit the road only through a single designated off-ramp lane. However, an individual vehicle has a severely limited memory and sensing capabilities, and, moreover, does not communicate with its peers. In this work we present a distributed algorithm that, nonetheless, allows vehicles to get to the desired lane without collisions and in timely manner.
