The performance of computer systems depends, among other things, on the workload. This motivates the use of real workloads (as recorded in activity logs) to drive simulations of n...
Computer system batch schedulers typically require information from the user upon job submission, including a runtime estimate. Inaccuracy of these runtime estimates, relative to ...

The use of today’s multicluster grids exhibits periods of submission bursts with periods of normal use and even of idleness. To avoid resource contention, many users employ obse...

This paper presents different methods for solving parallel machine scheduling problems with precedence constraints and setup times between the jobs. Limited discrepancy search met...
In modern resource management systems for supercomputers and HPC-clusters the job-scheduler plays a major role in improving the performance and usability of the system. The perfor...
