+# Core Flight System : Framework : App : Scheduler Lab
+
+This repository contains NASA's Scheduler Lab (sch_lab), which is a framework component of the Core Flight System.
+
+This lab application is a non-flight packet scheduler application for the cFS Bundle. It is intended to be located in the `apps/sch_lab` subdirectory of a cFS Mission Tree.  The Core Flight System is bundled at https://github.com/nasa/cFS (which includes sch_lab as a submodule), which includes build and execution instructions.
+
+sch_lab is a simple packet scheduler application with a one second resoluton.
+
+To change the list of packets that sch_lab sends out, edit the schedule table located in the platform include file:
+fsw/platform_inc/sch_lab_sched_tab.h
+

+sch_lab version 2.2.0a is released as part of cFE 6.6.0a under the Apache 2.0 license, see [LICENSE](LICENSE-18128-Apache-2_0.pdf).
