In this paper a model for scheduling in wide-area systems is described. The model is federated and utilizes a collection of local site schedulers that control the use of their res...
In this paper we consider the problem of scheduling n jobs on a single machine, where the jobs are processed in batches and the processing time of each job is a step function depe...

This paper considers the problem of scheduling two-operation non-preemptable jobs on two identical semiautomatic machines. A single server is available to carry out the first (or ...
Clusters are mostly used through Resources Management Systems (RMS) with a static allocation of resources for a bounded amount of time. Those approaches are known to be insufficie...
In systems consisting of multiple clusters of processors which employ space sharing for scheduling jobs, such as our Distributed ASCI1 Supercomputer (DAS), coallocation, i.e., the...
