— This paper considers scheduling divisible workloads from multiple sources in linear networks of processors. We propose a two phase scheduling strategy (TPSS) to minimize the ov...
This paper uses trace-driven simulations to evaluate two novel Web server scheduling policies called KSRPT and T-SRPT. K-SRPT is a multi-threaded version of SRPT (Shortest Remaini...
The Flexible Resource Manager (FRM) is a dynamic resource management approach that allows a better utilization of the available resources. However, it necessitates an atomic recon...
Consider a single machine and a set of jobs that are available for processing at time 0. Job ¡ has a processing time ¢¤£ , a due date ¥¦£ and a weight §¨£ . We consid...
We study a variant of classical scheduling, which is called scheduling with “end of sequence” information. It is known in advance that the last job has the longest processing ...
