this paper surveys parallel scheduling problems and metrics correlated to and then applys metrics to make decision in comparison to other policy schedulers. parallel processing is new trend in computer science especially in embedded and multicore systems whereas needs more power consumption to reach speed up. the qos requirement for users is to have good responsiveness and for service providers...

as the e-commerce sites are being more secure and reliable in recent years and the number of transactions is rising rapidly, parallelism can help us to reduce response time and increase throughput for e-commerce transactions. this paper will investigate parallelism in on-line transaction processing. it aims to specify those aspects of e-commerce transactions that would profit from parallel proc...

This paper gives a new application of DEA to evaluate the scheduling solutions of parallel processing. It evaluates the scheduling solutions of parallel processing using the non-convex DEA model, FDH model. By introducing each solution of parallel processing scheduling as a DMU with some relevant inputs and outputs this paper shows that how the most efficient schedule(s) can be identified.
