Scheduling Unrelated Machines by Randomized Rounding
We present a new class of randomized approximation algorithms for unrelated parallel machine scheduling problems with the average weighted completion time objective. The key idea i...

Time Space Sharing Scheduling and Architectural Support
In this paper, we describe a new job scheduling class, called \Time Space Sharing Scheduling" (TSSS) for dynamically partitionable parallel machines. As an instance of TSSS, ...

LogP: Towards a Realistic Model of Parallel Computation
A vast body of theoretical research has focused either on overly simplistic models of parallel computation, notably the PRAM, or overly specific models that have few representati...

Global Optimizations for Parallelism and Locality on Scalable Parallel Machines
Data locality is critical to achievinghigh performance on large-scale parallel machines. Non-local data accesses result in communication that can greatly impact performance. Thus ...

Evaluation of Mechanisms for Fine-Grained Parallel Programs in the J-Machine and the CM-5
er uses an abstract machine approach to compare the mechanisms of two parallel machines: the J-Machine and the CM-5. High-level parallel programs are translated by a single optimi...
