Abstract

A method may include identifying computing systems corresponding to an autonomous vehicle (AV) in which each computing system is configured to perform at least one operation relating to driving the AV. The method may include determining whether the computing systems use a first respective real-world parameter as an input to any of the operations or generate a second respective real-world parameter as an output of the operations. A respective operation corresponding to a respective computing system may be designated for accelerated performance based on the determination, and the operations of the computing systems may be performed. A first operation not designated for accelerated performance may include first computations corresponding to the first operation after waiting for a synchronization delay period, and a second operation designated for accelerated performance may include second computations corresponding to the second operation and performed without waiting for the synchronization delay period.
