The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $600,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to The Ohio State University for a 3-year project from August 2024 to July 2027. The project will develop an integrated feedback real-time scheduling framework to enhance the performance and safety of autonomous driving systems (ADS). The framework will dynamically optimize the execution of ADS tasks running on embedded electronic control units (ECUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) to meet strict timing deadlines. This will help improve the precision of ECU-based motion control tasks and the accuracy of GPU-based object detection and trajectory planning tasks, thereby enhancing overall vehicle safety and reducing crashes, injuries, and fatalities. The project aims to address limitations in existing real-time scheduling solutions for ADS, which must handle significant runtime variability in task execution times and leverage complex GPU architectures. No subawards are planned under this grant.
