Metrics for Parallel Job Scheduling and Their Convergence
The arrival process of jobs submitted to a parallel system is bursty, leading to fluctuations in the load at many time scales. In particular, rare events of extreme load may occu...

Unfairness Metrics for Space-Sharing Parallel Job Schedulers
Sociology, computer networking and operations research provide evidence of the importance of fairness in queuing disciplines. Currently, there is no accepted model for characteriz...

A new metric for robustness with application to job scheduling
Scheduling strategies for parallel and distributed computing have mostly been oriented toward performance, while striving to achieve some notion of fairness. With the increase in ...

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...

Hybrid Performance-Oriented Scheduling of Moldable Jobs with QoS Demands in Multiclusters and Grids
This paper addresses the dynamic scheduling of moldable jobs with QoS demands (soft-deadlines) in multiclusters. A moldable job can be run on a variable number of resources. Three ...
