Abstract
According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, a first autonomous mobile robot (AMR) encounters a second AMR, while navigating a location. The first AMR receives, from the second AMR, a task list of the second AMR. The first AMR determines an adjustment to the task list of the second AMR, based in part on a comparison between the task list of the second AMR and a task list maintained by the first AMR. The first AMR sends, to the second AMR, the adjustment to the task list of the second AMR.
