The improved sweep metaheuristic for simulation optimization and application to job shop scheduling
We present an improved sweep metaheuristic for discrete event simulation optimization. The sweep algorithm is a tree search similar to beam search. The basic idea is to run a limi...

Multiple-queue backfilling scheduling with priorities and reservations for parallel systems
We describe a new, non-FCFS policy to schedule parallel jobs on systems that may be part of a computational grid. Our algorithm continuously monitors the system (i.e., the intensi...
