BOINC, a middleware system for volunteer computing, involves projects, which distribute jobs, and hosts, which execute jobs. The local (host-level) scheduler addresses two issues:...
To balance performance goals and allow administrators to declaratively specify high-level performance goals, we apply complete search algorithms to design on-line job scheduling p...
This paper presents a comprehensive characterization of a multi-cluster supercomputer1 workload using twelvemonth scientific research traces. Metrics that we characterize include...
We study the online version of the classical parallel machine scheduling problem to minimize the total weighted completion time from a new perspective: We assume that the data of ...
