Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Modern parallel systems with n processor nodes can be used by jobs requesting up to n processors. If less than n processors are requested, multiple jobs can be run at the same time, allowing a larger number of users to use the system. One of the challenges for the operating system is to give reasonable service to a diverse group of requests. A single 1-node job that is running for a long time may effectively block the whole machine if the next job requests all n processors. To date various policies have been proposed for the scheduling of highly parallel computers. But as the users of current systems (e.g., a Paragon or T3D) know, these policies work far from perfect. Furthermore there is no literature that reports how such systems are really used, and as a result, there are no established evaluation techniques for scheduling policies. In this paper, we report on the measurement of the usage of a 96-node Intel Paragon used in a combined research, development and production environment at a supercomputing center. We define a sinple metric to evaluate different scheduling strategies, and show that a set of simple techniques can significantly improve the usage of the machine. We believe that these results are of prime interest to supercomputer installations that wish to improve the quality of service they provide to the users."

This book was released on 2010-03-14 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overview and Goals This book is dedicated to scheduling for parallel processing. Presenting a research ?eld as broad as this one poses considerable dif?culties. Scheduling for parallel computing is an interdisciplinary subject joining many ?elds of science and te- nology. Thus, to understand the scheduling problems and the methods of solving them it is necessary to know the limitations in related areas. Another dif?culty is that the subject of scheduling parallel computations is immense. Even simple search in bibliographical databases reveals thousands of publications on this topic. The - versity in understanding scheduling problems is so great that it seems impossible to juxtapose them in one scheduling taxonomy. Therefore, most of the papers on scheduling for parallel processing refer to one scheduling problem resulting from one way of perceiving the reality. Only a few publications attempt to arrange this ?eld of knowledge systematically. In this book we will follow two guidelines. One guideline is a distinction - tween scheduling models which comprise a set of scheduling problems solved by dedicated algorithms. Thus, the aim of this book is to present scheduling models for parallel processing, problems de?ned on the grounds of certain scheduling models, and algorithms solving the scheduling problems. Most of the scheduling problems are combinatorial in nature. Therefore, the second guideline is the methodology of computational complexity theory. Inthisbookwepresentfourexamplesofschedulingmodels. Wewillgodeepinto the models, problems, and algorithms so that after acquiring some understanding of them we will attempt to draw conclusions on their mutual relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers presented at the 10th Anniversary Workshop on Job Scheduling Strategies for Parallel Processing. The workshop was held in New York City, on June 13, 2004, at Columbia University, in conjunction with the SIGMETRICS 2004 conference. Although it is a workshop, the papers were conference-reviewed, with the full versions being read and evaluated by at least five and usually seven members of the Program Committee. We refer to it as a workshop because of the very fast turnaround time, the intimate nature of the actual presentations, and the ability of the authors to revise their papers after getting feedback from workshop attendees. On the other hand, it was actually a conference in that the papers were accepted solely on their merits as decided upon by the Program Committee. We would like to thank the Program Committee members, Su-Hui Chiang, Walfredo Cirne, Allen Downey, Eitan Frachtenberg, Wolfgang Gentzsch, Allan Gottlieb, Moe Jette, Richard Lagerstrom, Virginia Lo, Reagan Moore, Bill Nitzberg, Mark Squillante, and John Towns, for an excellent job. Thanks are also due to the authors for their submissions, presentations, and final revisions for this volume. Finally, we would like to thank the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), The Hebrew University, and Columbia University for the use of their facilities in the preparation of the workshop and these proceedings.
