What is meant by Scheduling of robots?
The term "scheduling of robots" refers to the temporal and strategic organization of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) tasks. This involves planning workflows, defining tasks to be automated, and organizing when and how software robots will be deployed to ensure efficient and targeted execution. The scheduling process often includes setting timeframes, coordinating multiple robots, and prioritizing tasks.
Typical software functions in the area of "scheduling of robots":
- Schedule Creation: Defining regular or one-time execution times for the robots.
- Resource Allocation: Assigning and managing hardware or software resources required by the robots.
- Prioritization: Setting priorities for different tasks to ensure that critical processes are executed first.
- Load Balancing: Distributing workloads across multiple robots to avoid bottlenecks and maximize efficiency.
- Auto-Scaling: Dynamically adjusting the number of active robots based on workload or specific parameters.
- Calendar Integration: Integrating robot scheduling into existing company calendars for seamless coordination with other business processes.
- Notifications and Alerts: Automatic notifications to users or administrators regarding schedule changes or issues with task execution.
