Makespan-minimized multi-agent path planning (MAPP) seeks to minimize the time taken by the slowest of n agents to reach its destination and this is essentially a minimax-constrained optimization problem. In this work, an iterative max-min improvement (IMMI) algorithm is proposed to approximate the...
