Abstract
A system includes a vehicle managing system (VMS) and a task managing system (TMS). The VMS is configured to communicate to a selected vehicle and is configured to include a vehicle connection module (VCM) and a task allocation module (TAM). The VCM is configured to identify the selected vehicle based on a vehicle identifier of the selected vehicle. The TAM is configured to obtain a task order associated with the selected vehicle, where the task order defines one or more tasks to be performed on the selected vehicle. The TMS includes multiple task execution controllers (TECs) and a task scheduling controller (TSC). The TAM of the VMS is configured to provide the task order for the selected vehicle to the TSC, and the TSC is configured to assign the task order to a selected TEC, which executes the task order for the selected vehicle.
