A workflow management system is described to manage tasks to be performed with vehicles. The workflow management system includes a workflow management server and a computer located in a vehicle. The workflow management server generates and sends to the computer a record that describes a task to be performed with a vehicle. The task may include collecting sensor data from one or more sensors on the vehicle, or performing a vehicle driving test using an updated operating system to be used by the vehicle. The record can include a starting location and a destination of a route on which the vehicle is to perform the task. The computer receives the record, executes an operating system of the vehicle to perform the task, determines that the task is completed, and sends to a database a record status information that indicates that the task is completed.

Workflow management system

Various embodiments for implementing a system and method for managing and querying semi-structured, heterogeneously-typed sensor data in a distributed environment are disclosed. Example embodiments include: enabling data communications between a plurality of compute nodes and a plurality of physical data storage devices via an application programming interface (API) layer, a cache management layer, a server layer, and a storage layer; and receiving a data request from at least one of the plurality of compute nodes at the API layer, the data request including an identification of a topic of a dataset, the topic including a metadata file, a data file, and an index file, the index file including at least one pointer into the data file.
