Grid is a distributed high performance computing paradigm that offers various types of
resources (like computing, storage, communication) to resource-intensive user tasks. These …

The most commonly used scheduling algorithm for parallel supercomputers is FCFS with
backfilling, as originally introduced in the EASY scheduler. Backfilling means that short jobs …

Multiserver-job systems, where jobs require concurrent service at many servers, occur
widely in practice. Essentially all of the theoretical work on multiserver-job systems focuses …

Abstract Multiserver-job (MSJ) systems, where jobs need to run concurrently across many
servers, are increasingly common in practice. The default service ordering in many settings …

User estimates of job runtimes have emerged as an important component of the workload on
parallel machines, and can have a significant impact on how a scheduler treats different …

The cloud computing paradigm is attracting an increased number of complex applications to
run in remote data centers. Many complex applications require parallel processing …

(57) ABSTRACT A method is provided for the recovery of an instance of a job manager
running on one of a plurality of nodes used to execute the processing elements associated …

Job scheduling strategies have been studied for decades in a variety of scenarios. Due to
the new characteristics of the emerging computational systems, such as the grid and cloud …

High performance computing (HPC) scheduling landscape currently faces new challenges
due to the changes in the workload. Previously, HPC centers were dominated by tightly …
