We propose a tunable scheduling strategy that lies between FIFO and shortest- rst, based on the value of a coe cient Alpha. If Alpha is set to zero then this strategy is just FIFO....
In this paper, we consider parallel tasks scheduling problems for hierarchical decentralized systems that consist of homogeneous computational resources such as clusters, PCs and ...

Current systems for managing workload on clusters of workstations, particularly those available for Linuxbased (Beowulf) clusters, are typically based on traditional process-based...
Malleable jobs are parallel programs that can change the number of processors on which they are executing at run time in response to an external command. One of the advantages of ...
Abstract. In order to evaluate different scheduling strategies for parallel computers, simulations are often executed. As the scheduling quality highly depends on the workload tha...
