1. A method comprising:

  • aggregating a plurality of cloud processing devices at a vehicle aggregation location, wherein the vehicle aggregation location is a healthcare facility, wherein the plurality of cloud processing devices aggregated at the healthcare facility includes a plurality of three-dimensional (3D) fabrication devices in a plurality of vehicles each having at least one of the plurality of 3D fabrication devices, wherein each of the plurality of 3D fabrication devices includes a biosynthesis device, bio-sequencing device, bioinformatics device or three-dimensional printer that produces an object or article in the plurality of vehicles, wherein the object or article is a medical product, and wherein an aggregated time the plurality of cloud processing devices is aggregated at the healthcare facility is generated by direct input from a user interface device;

    communicating via a network with the aggregated cloud processing devices and client devices for receiving requests for cloud tasks from the client devices wherein each request indicates the object or article to be produced by at least one of the plurality of 3D fabrication devices within the aggregated time the plurality of cloud processing devices is aggregated at the healthcare facility; and

    scheduling and managing performance of the cloud tasks via the aggregated cloud processing devices aggregated at the healthcare facility based on the aggregated time the plurality of cloud processing devices is aggregated at the healthcare facility, wherein the managing includes receiving cloud task results data from the aggregated cloud processing devices aggregated at the healthcare facility indicating when the cloud tasks are completed, wherein the scheduling and managing performance of the cloud tasks via the aggregated cloud processing devices aggregated at the healthcare facility includes allocating performance of the cloud tasks further based on a time criticality for each of the cloud tasks that indicates one of;

    a high criticality or a low criticality, and wherein the high criticality is more time critical than the low criticality.
