In this paper we propose a new class of scheduling policies, dubbed Concurrent Gang, that combines the advantages of gang scheduling for communication and synchronization intensiv...
Irregular and iterative I/O-intensive jobs need a different approach from parallel job schedulers. The focus in this case is not only the processing requirements anymore: memory, ...
There are many choices to make when evaluating the performance of a complex system. In the context of parallel job scheduling, one must decide what workload to use and what measur...
Sociology, computer networking and operations research provide evidence of the importance of fairness in queuing disciplines. Currently, there is no accepted model for characteriz...
Most space-sharing parallel computers presently operated by high-performance computing centers use batch-queuing systems to manage processor allocation. In many cases, users wishi...
We study parallel job scheduling, where each job may be scheduled on any number of available processors in a given parallel system. We propose a mathematical model to estimate a j...
