We consider a system with a dispatcher and several identical servers in parallel. Task processing times are known upon arrival. We first study the impact of the local scheduling ...
This paper is concerned with the design of goal-oriented scheduling policies that deal with multiple goals on production parallel systems. Several objective models are compared, i...
Scheduling is a key problem in distributed heterogeneous computing systems in order to benefit from the large computing capacity of such systems and is an NP-complete problem. In ...
Energy reduction is critical to increase the mobility and to extend the mission period in the development of today’s pervasive computing systems. On the other hand, however, ene...
Temporal locality in workloads creates conditions in which a server, in order to remain available, should quickly process bursts of requests with large service requirements. In th...
