Abstract
One or more autonomous vehicles are clustered into one or more microgrids and at least one computing task is scheduled on at least one microgrid. Activation signals are received from a client of one or more autonomous vehicles when the vehicles are plugged into charging stations. Utilization rates of the autonomous vehicles are determined based on a set of parameters, which includes at least one of location of the autonomous vehicle and time. The autonomous vehicles are clustered into one or more microgrids of autonomous vehicles based on the utilization rates. At least one request for performing at least one computing task is received from a user device. The at least one request includes an estimated runtime of the at least one computing task. The at least one computing task is scheduled on at least one microgrid of autonomous vehicles based on the estimated runtime.
