We propose a novel approach, called Dynamic Fractional Resource Scheduling (DFRS), to share homogeneous cluster computing platforms among competing jobs. DFRS leverages virtual mac...
Most parallel computing resources are controlled by batch schedulers that place requests for computation in a queue until access to compute nodes is granted. Queue waiting times a...
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
Scheduling of multiple parallel machinesin the face of sequence dependent setups and downstream considerations is a hard problem. No single efficient algorithm is guaranteedto pro...
Grid computing is fast emerging as the solution to the problems posed by the massive computational and data handling requirements of many current international scientific project...
