Epoch Task Scheduling in Distributed Server Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
In this work we study a special type of task scheduling referred to as epoch scheduling in a distributed server (processor) system. With this policy, processor queues are rearranged only at the end of predefined intervals. The time interval between successive queue rearrangements is called an epoch. The objective is to examine if epoch scheduling can perform close to STF method and achieve fairer service than that of STF. A simulation model is used to address performance issues associated with epoch scheduling. Simulated results indicate that epoch scheduling is a good method to use.

Distributed systems such as Grid- and Cloud Computing provision web services to their users in all of the world. One of the most important concerns which service providers encounter is to handle total cost of ownership (TCO). The large part of TCO is related to power consumption due to inefficient resource management. Task scheduling module as a key component can has drastic impact on both user...

This paper introduces an analytical method for approximating the performability of a firm realtime system modeled by a multi-server queue. The service discipline in the queue is earliestdeadline- first (EDF), which is an optimal scheduling algorithm. Real-time jobs with exponentially distributed relative deadlines arrive according to a Poisson process. All jobs have deadlines until the end of s...

Low latency is highly desirable for cloud services. To achieve low response time, stringent timing requirements are needed for task scheduling in a large-scale server farm spanning thousands of servers. In this paper, we conduct an in-depth analysis for distributed Join-the-Idle-Queue (JIQ), a promising new approximation of an idealized task-scheduling algorithm. In particular, we derive semi-c...
