1. A system to accomplish a physical process comprising:
one or more sets of robots, each robot to perform one or more physical operations;
a computing device in communication with each of the one or more sets of robots, the computing device comprising:
a communication interface; and
one or more processors to:
receive object data for an object that is a subject of the physical process, the object data specifying points of the object;
determine one or more operation sequences each to accomplish a portion of the physical process, each operation sequence of the one or more operation sequences providing an ordering of a set of physical operations that are associated with the one or more points of the object and that are to be performed by a set of robots of the one or more sets of robots;
generate an operation schedule specifying timing of performance of each operation sequence of the one or more operation sequences and a set of robots of the one or more sets of robots to perform each operation sequence;
generate physical process data comprising the operation schedule and the one or more operation sequences; and
communicate the physical process data, via the communication interface, to the one more sets of robots to perform the one or more operation sequences according to the operation schedule.
