The Mars 2020 Rover mission is using automated scheduling in two capacities. As of March 2021 a ground-based scheduler automatically schedules rover wake/sleep and preheats to support Mars 2020 daily operations. Included in the ground system is an explainable scheduling tool that allows users in-sight into the schedule developed by the automated scheduler. An onboard scheduler that will allow the rover autonomously better account for variations in execution is in development for use later in the mission.
