Analysis of Round-Robin Implementations of Processor Sharing, Including Overhead
—It has been observed in recent years that in many applications service time demands are highly variable. Without foreknowledge of exact service times of individual jobs, process...

Finding the optimal quantum size: Sensitivity analysis of the M/G/1 round-robin queue
We consider the round robin (RR) scheduling policy where the server processes each job in its buffer for at most a fixed quantum, q, in a round-robin fashion. The processor sharin...

Memory management in NUMA multicore systems: trapped between cache contention and interconnect overhead
Multiprocessors based on processors with multiple cores usually include a non-uniform memory architecture (NUMA); even current 2-processor systems with 8 cores exhibit non-uniform...

Efficient and scalable multiprocessor fair scheduling using distributed weighted round-robin
Fairness is an essential requirement of any operating system scheduler. Unfortunately, existing fair scheduling algorithms are either inaccurate or inefficient and non-scalable fo...
