This paper describes simulations designed to test the relative efficiency of two different sequential auction mechanisms for allocating compute resources between users in a shared...
Time/utility function time constraints (or TUFs) and utility accrual (UA) scheduling optimality criteria, constitute, arguably, the most effective and broadest approach for adapti...
Scheduling is one of the most successful application areas of constraint programming mainly thanks to special global constraints designed to model resource restrictions. Among thes...
In this paper, we consider parallel tasks scheduling problems for hierarchical decentralized systems that consist of homogeneous computational resources such as clusters, PCs and ...
