About

Radhika Mittal is a rising star in the field of computer systems, with a primary focus on resource-constrained, real-time computing environments. Her work sits at the intersection of operating systems, robotics, and embedded systems, where she tackles the critical challenge of scheduling complex computational pipelines on devices with limited processing power. Her most cited paper, "On-Device CPU Scheduling for Robot Systems" (2022, 6 citations), addresses the pressing need for highly responsive, autonomous robots that must execute a continuous loop of sensing, perception, planning, and reaction tasks. By rethinking traditional CPU scheduling for these dynamic workloads, Mittal's research enables robots to meet stringent performance and application-specific requirements without relying on cloud offloading. This contribution is particularly vital for the next generation of autonomous drones, mobile manipulators, and edge-AI devices. Though early in her career, her work is already shaping how we design efficient, real-time systems for the physical world, marking her as a key contributor to the future of embodied AI and cyber-physical systems.
