Abstract

Clusters of heterogeneous PCs/workstations have become attractive systems to execute a set of computationally intensive independent tasks. This paper focuses on scheduling schemes in a dynamic context - i.e. where scheduling decisions are made periodically as jobs arrive, in contrast to static scheduling where scheduling is performed after all jobs have been submitted. This paper characterizes different scheduling schemes with respect to varying arrival rates and burstiness in the job arrival rate. Using the insights gained by the characterization, a set of approaches is proposed to improve the previously developed strategies with respect to turn-around time. Simulation results indicate improvements of up to 40% in turnaround time by using the proposed enhancements.

Research Note: A high performance algorithm for static task scheduling in heterogeneous distributed computing systems

Effective task scheduling is essential for obtaining high performance in heterogeneous distributed computing systems (HeDCSs). However, finding an effective task schedule in HeDCSs requires the consideration of both the heterogeneity of processors and ...
A hybrid list-based task scheduling scheme for heterogeneous computing
Abstract
Efficient task scheduling is required to attain high performance in both homogeneous and heterogeneous computing systems. An application can be considered as a task grid represented using a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). Solving such DAG ...
A Task Duplication Based Scheduling Algorithm for Heterogeneous Systems
IPDPS '00: Proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing

Optimal scheduling of tasks of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) onto a set of processors is a strong NP-hard problem. In this paper, we present a scheduling scheme called TDS to schedule tasks of a DAG onto a heterogeneous system. This models a network of ...
