Optimal Scheduling in the Multiserver-job Model under Heavy Traffic
Isaac Grosof, Ziv Scully, Mor Harchol-Balter +1
Multiserver-job systems, where jobs require concurrent service at many servers, occur widely in practice. Essentially all of the theoretical work on multiserver-job systems focuses…
How to Schedule Near-Optimally under Real-World Constraints
Ziv Scully, Mor Harchol-Balter
Scheduling is a critical part of practical computer systems, and scheduling has also been extensively studied from a theoretical perspective. Unfortunately, there is a gap between…
Computing the Death Rate of COVID-19
Naveen Pai, Sean Zhang, Mor Harchol-Balter
The Infection Fatality Rate (IFR) of COVID-19 is difficult to estimate because the number of infections is unknown and there is a lag between each infection and the potentially sub…
Nudge: Stochastically Improving upon FCFS
Isaac Grosof, Kunhe Yang, Ziv Scully +1
The First-Come First-Served (FCFS) scheduling policy is the most popular scheduling algorithm used in practice. Furthermore, its usage is theoretically validated: for light-tailed…
heSRPT: Parallel Scheduling to Minimize Mean Slowdown
Benjamin Berg, Rein Vesilo, Mor Harchol-Balter
Modern data centers serve workloads which are capable of exploiting parallelism. When a job parallelizes across multiple servers it will complete more quickly, but jobs receive dim…
Zero Queueing for Multi-Server Jobs
Weina Wang, Qiaomin Xie, Mor Harchol-Balter
Cloud computing today is dominated by multi-server jobs. These are jobs that request multiple servers simultaneously and hold onto all of these servers for the duration of the job.…
