Based on its Plato scheduling library, GSOC has developed the scheduling components for controlling the EDRS-A and EDRS-C payloads, called Link Management System. This paper reports on the operational experience gained from almost two years of EDRS-A operations and the improvements that have been made to the codebase. The necessary changes for EDRS-C are highlighted. Finally, thoughts and recommendations for future ground segment engineering are given.
