    AnnotationOpen, irreversible, dynamically routed, zone-controlled guidepath-based transport systems model the operation of many automated unit-load material handling systems that are used in various production and distribution facilities. An important requirement for these systems is to preserve the system liveness, i.e., the ability of each system agent to reach any location of the underlying guidepath network, by blocking those traffic states that will result in deadlock and/or livelock. The remaining set of traffic states are characterized as “live.” The worst-case computational complexity of the decision problem of assessing the state liveness in the considered class of transport systems is an open issue. As a first contribution of this paper, we identify an extensive subclass of these traffic states, defined through the topology of an abstracting graphical representation of the “traffic state” concept, for which the corresponding problem of liveness assessment admits a polynomial solution.
