This paper presents a comprehensive characterization of a multi-cluster supercomputer1 workload using twelvemonth scientific research traces. Metrics that we characterize include...
We describe a new, non-FCFS policy to schedule parallel jobs on systems that may be part of a computational grid. Our algorithm continuously monitors the system (i.e., the intensi...
Abstract. In order to evaluate different scheduling strategies for parallel computers, simulations are often executed. As the scheduling quality highly depends on the workload tha...
Efficient scheduling of jobs on parallel processors is essential for good performance. However, design of such schedulers is challenging because of the complex interaction between...
In a computational grid environment, a common practice is try to allocate an entire parallel job onto a single participating site. Sometimes a parallel job, upon its submission, ca...
