Market mechanisms solve distributed scheduling problems by allocating the scheduled resources according to market prices. We model distributed scheduling as a discrete resource al...

The problem of scheduling independent tasks on heterogeneous trees is considered. The nodes of the tree may have different processing times, and links different communication time...
This paper studies parallel job scheduling in a distributed system. A simulation model is used to address performance issues associated with scheduling. Five policies are used to ...
— We develop distributed scheduling schemes that are based on simple random access algorithms and that have no message passing. In spite of their simplicity, these schemes are sh...
An important part of a distributed system design is the workload sharing among the processors. This includes partitioningthe arriving jobs into tasks that can be executed in paral...
