Abstract
This document describes a simulation system that simulates robots and other actors performing tasks in an area. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining a graph representing a physical area. The graph includes area nodes that represent regions of the area that are traversed by a set of actors that perform tasks in the area and terminal nodes that represent regions of the facility where the actors perform the tasks. A set of agents that each include a model corresponding to an actor is identified. At least a portion of the agents includes models for robots that perform tasks in the area. The model of an agent represents durations of time for traversing area nodes and performing tasks are terminal nodes during simulations. A sequence of tasks being performed in the area is simulated using the graph and the set of agents.
