Using Run-Time Predictions to Estimate Queue Wait Times and Improve Scheduler Performance
On many computers, a request to run a job is not serviced immediately but instead is placed in a queue and serviced only when resources are released by preceding jobs. In this pape...

Optimal Preemptive Scheduling for General Target Functions
We study the problem of optimal preemptive scheduling with respect to a general target function. Given n jobs with associated weights and m ≤ n uniformly related machines, one a...

A Learning Approach to Mechanism Design in Grid Resource Allocation
In this article a new algorithm for grid resource allocation based upon the theory of Algorithmic Mechanism Design (AMD) is presented. This algorithm is targeted at minimizing cost...

An Experimental Evaluation of Processor Pool-Based Scheduling for Shared-Memory NUMA Multiprocessors
In this paper we describe the design, implementation and experimental evaluation of a technique for operating system schedulers called processor pool-based scheduling [51]. Our tec...

Approximation Algorithms for the Max-coloring Problem
Given a graph G = (V, E) and positive integral vertex weights w : V → N, the max-coloring problem seeks to find a proper vertex coloring of G whose color classes C1, C2, . . . ,...
