Abstract: A method is presented. The method includes receiving at least one order, generating one or more optimization problem instances using one or more resource descriptions of automated laboratory equipment, one or more protocol descriptions of the automated laboratory equipment, an objective function and the at least one order. The method further includes providing the one or more optimization problem instances as input to a constraint optimization solver and processing the one or more optimization problem instances by the constraint optimization solver to generate the schedule of operations to carry out the at least one order on the automated laboratory equipment.
