We study the problem of executing a collection of independently designed and validated task systems upon a common comprised of a preemptive processor and additional shared resourc...
ER ABSTRACTIONS ter service uses several abstractions— including resource, resource dependencies, and resource groups—to simplify both the cluster service itself and user-visib...
Deadlock-free resource allocation has been an active area of research in flexible manufacturing. Most researchers have assumed that allocated resources do not fail, and thus, littl...
This paper presents new mechanisms for dynamic resource management in a cluster manager called Clusteron-Demand (COD). COD allocates servers from a common pool to multiple virtual...

We propose a novel approach, called Dynamic Fractional Resource Scheduling (DFRS), to share homogeneous cluster computing platforms among competing jobs. DFRS leverages virtual mac...
