Abstract
Autonomous and semi-autonomous mobile robots have to perform a multiplicity of concurrent activities in order to carry out useful tasks in unstructured human-populated environments. Even if it is commonly accepted that a successful accomplishment of assigned tasks requires some sort of real time capability to quickly react and adapt to environmental changes, it is not clear which operating system support is best suited for the scheduling and synchronizing of concurrent activities with different timing requirements. This paper discusses this problem, comparing two different real time scheduling policies for autonomous robot applications: pre-emptive rate monotonic and non pre-emptive Earliest Deadline First (EDF). Experimental results are presented and evaluated.
