concert_scheduling

Scheduler support packages for the Robotics in Concert project.

These packages are still in development.

Because different systems require different scheduling policies, the ROCON design allows for multiple scheduler implementations. These ROS packages provide some common infrastructure, written in Python, for various scheduler implementations to use or modify.

It also includes an example scheduler, which uses that infrastructure to create a simple fixed-priority, first-come-first-served implementation, probably the simplest scheduler one could actually run.
