چکیده

In a Multicore architecture, each package consists of large number of processors. This increase in processor core brings new evolution in parallel computing. Besides enormous performance enhancement, this multicore package injects lot of challenges and opportunities on the operating system scheduling point of view. We know that multiagent system is concerned with the development and analysis of optimization problems. The main objective of multiagent system is to invent some methodologies that make the developer to build complex systems that can be used to solve sophisticated problems. This is difficult for an individual agent to solve. In this paper we combine the AMAS theory of multiagent system with the scheduler of operating system to develop a new process scheduling algorithm for multicore architecture. This multiagent based scheduling algorithm promises in minimizing the average waiting time of the processes in the centralized queue and also reduces the task of the scheduler. We actually modified and simulated the linux 2.6.11 kernel process scheduler to incorporate the multiagent system concept. The comparison is made for different number of cores with multiple combinations of process and the results are shown for average waiting time Vs number of cores in the centralized queue.

Solving the flexible job shop problem by hybrid metaheuristics-based multiagent model

The flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) is a generalization of the classical job shop scheduling problem that allows to process operations on one machine out of a set of alternative machines. The FJSP is an NP-hard problem consisting of two sub-problems, which are the assignment and the scheduling problems. In this paper, we propose how to solve the FJSP by hybrid metaheuristics-based c...
