Understanding the slowdown of large jobs in an M/GI/1 system
We explore the performance of an M/GI/1 queue under various scheduling policies from the perspective of a new metric: the it slowdown experienced by largest jobs. We consider sche...

Decoupling Computation and Data Scheduling in Distributed Data-Intensive Applications
In high energy physics, bioinformatics, and other disciplines, we encounter applications involving numerous, loosely coupled jobs that both access and generate large data sets. So...

Tail-robust scheduling via limited processor sharing
From a rare events perspective, scheduling disciplines that work well under light (exponential) tailed workload distributions do not perform well under heavy (power) tailed worklo...

Scheduling Algorithms with Bus Bandwidth Considerations for SMPs
The bus that connects processors to memory is known to be a major architectural bottleneck in SMPs. However, both software and scheduling policies for these systems generally focu...
