An Owner-centric Metric for the Evaluation of Online Job Schedules

نویسنده

  • Uwe Schwiegelshohn
چکیده

The paper presents a metric that is well suited to evaluate online job schedules for massively parallel processors. We point out the disadvantages of commonly used metrics like makespan or machine utilization. We suggest to use the well known total weighted completion time metric with an appropriate selection of job weights and show that this metric exhibits many properties that are similar to the properties of the makespan objective. In addition, it also supports the evaluation of online schedules and allows extensions to consider additional job based system policies. Our performance evaluation of this metric is based on competitive analysis.

An Omniscient Scheduling Oracle for Systems with Harmonic Periods

Most real-time scheduling problems are known to be NP-complete. To enable accurate comparison between the schedules of heuristic algorithms and the optimal schedule, we introduce an omniscient oracle. This oracle provides schedules for periodic task sets with harmonic periods and variable resource requirements. Three di erent job value functions are described and implemented. Each corresponds t...
