Patent ID: 8924462

Claim:
An apparatus for controlling a plurality of robot services of a network robot system, comprising: a terminal agent configured to, upon receiving the plurality of robot services from a service server through a network, call an asynchronous procedure of each of the robot services to acquire a plurality of asynchronous operation objects for the robot services, and perform asynchronous operations on the acquired asynchronous operation objects according to one of previously established scheduling policies; and a plurality of drivers configured to execute the robot services according to the asynchronous operations of the terminal agent, wherein the previously established scheduling policies include a first scheduling policy for sequentially performing the asynchronous operations on the acquired asynchronous operation objects, a second scheduling policy for executing the asynchronous operations on the acquired asynchronous operation objects in parallel, and a third scheduling policy for forcibly ending existing asynchronous operations and performing the asynchronous operations on the acquired asynchronous operation objects.
