Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a multi-tiered computing environment for balancing compute resources in support of robot operations. In an example, a robot is tasked with performing an operation associated with an airplane having an airplane model. To do so, the robot may need another operation that is computationally complex to be performed. An on-premises server can execute a process that corresponds to this computationally-complex operation based on sensor data of the robot and can output the resulting data to the robot. Next, the robot can use the resulting data to execute another process corresponding to its operation and can indicate performance of this operation to the on-premises network. The on-premises network can send the indication about the operation performance to a top-tier server that is also associated with the airplane model.
