The Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) scheduling policy and its variants have been extensively studied in both theoretical and practical settings. While beautiful results are known for single-server SRPT, much less is known for…
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 on maximizing utilization, with almost nothing known about…
We present a heavy traffic analysis for a single server queue with renewal arrivals and generally distributed i.i.d. service times, in which the server employs the Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) policy. Under typical heavy…
Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) is a well known preemptive scheduling algorithm for uniprocessor and multiprocessor systems. SRPT finds applications in the emerging areas such as scheduling of client's requests that are submitted…
A well-designed scheduling policy can unlock significant performance improvements with no additional resources. Multiserver SRPT (SRPT-$k$) is known to achieve asymptotically optimal mean response time in the heavy traffic limit, as load…
In this paper we study the multiple-processor multitask scheduling problem in both deterministic and stochastic models, where each job have several tasks and is complete only when all its tasks are finished. We consider and analyze Modified…
We consider a single-server queue with renewal arrivals and i.i.d. service times, in which the server employs either the preemptive Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) policy, or its non-preemptive variant, Shortest Job First (SJF).…
This paper describes a new scheduling algorithm to distribute jobs in server farm systems. The proposed algorithm overcomes the starvation caused by SRPT (Shortest Remaining Processing Time). This algorithm is used in process scheduling in…
Can the popular shortest remaining processing time (SRPT) algorithm achieve a constant competitive ratio on multiple servers when server speeds are adjustable (speed scaling) with respect to the flow time plus energy consumption metric?…
Multiserver jobs, which are jobs that occupy multiple servers simultaneously during service, are prevalent in today's computing clusters. But little is known about the delay performance of systems with multiserver jobs. We consider queueing…
Single-server queues with customer abandonment arise in call centers and many service systems, but steady-state performance measures remain analytically intractable beyond Markovian assumptions. This paper develops Robust Queueing (RQ)…
We consider the problem of scheduling a queueing system in which many statistically identical servers cater to several classes of impatient customers. Service times and impatience clocks are exponential while arrival processes are renewal.…
Utilizing customers' service-time information, we study an easy-to-implement scheduling policy with two priority classes. By carefully designing the classes, the two-class priority rule achieves near-optimal performance. In particular, for…
We study the asymptotic response time tail in the M/G/n multi-server queue with heavy-tailed (regularly varying) job sizes, a setting representative of modern computing workloads. For single-server systems, tail optimization is well…
We study a single server queue operating under the shortest remaining processing time (SRPT) scheduling policy; that is, the server preemptively serves the job with the shortest remaining processing time first. In this work we are…
We study tandem queueing systems in which servers work more efficiently in teams than on their own and customers are impatient in that they may leave the system while waiting for service. Our goal is to determine the server assignment…
We present a new framework for designing nonpreemptive and job-size oblivious scheduling policies in the multiserver-job queueing model. The main requirement is to identify a static and balanced sub-partition of the server set and ensure…
We study online task allocation for multi-robot, multi-queue systems with stochastic arrivals and switching delays. Time is slotted; each location can host at most one robot per slot; service consumes one slot; switching between locations…
We study the conditional sojourn time distributions of processor sharing (PS), foreground background processor sharing (FBPS) and shortest remaining processing time first (SRPT) scheduling disciplines on an event where the job size of a…
We consider the problem of online preemptive scheduling on a single machine to minimize the total flow time. In clairvoyant scheduling, where job processing times are revealed upon arrival, the Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT)…
