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)…

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…

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…

Conventional wisdom for minimizing the average flow completion time (AFCT) in the datacenter network (DCN), where flow sizes are highly variable, would suggest scheduling every individual flow. However, we show that considering scheduling…

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).…

We study the problem of preemptively scheduling jobs online over time on a single machine to minimize the total flow time. In the traditional clairvoyant scheduling model, the scheduler learns about the processing time of a job at its…

We consider the classical problem of scheduling $n$ jobs with release dates on both single and identical parallel machines. We measure the quality of service provided to each job by its stretch, which is defined as the ratio of its response…

Due to its optimality on a single machine for the problem of minimizing average flow time, Shortest-Remaining-Processing-Time (\srpt) appears to be the most natural algorithm to consider for the problem of minimizing average flow time on…

We consider the problem of online scheduling on a single machine in order to minimize weighted flow time. The existing algorithms for this problem (STOC '01, SODA '03, FOCS '18) all require exact knowledge of the processing time of each…

Datacenters are the main infrastructure on top of which cloud computing services are offered. Such infrastructure may be shared by a large number of tenants and applications generating a spectrum of datacenter traffic. Delay sensitive…

In this paper, we explore how a natural generalization of Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) can be a powerful \emph{meta-algorithm} for online scheduling. The meta-algorithm processes jobs to maximally reduce the objective of the…

When parallelizing a set of jobs across many servers, one must balance a trade-off between granting priority to short jobs and maintaining the overall efficiency of the system. When the goal is to minimize the mean flow time of a set of…

The efficient scheduling of multi-task jobs across multiprocessor systems has become increasingly critical with the rapid expansion of computational systems. This challenge, known as Multiprocessor Multitask Scheduling (MPMS), is essential…

Efficient task scheduling in heterogeneous computing environments is imperative for optimizing resource utilization and minimizing task completion times. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive benchmarking analysis to evaluate the…

The problem of scheduling jobs and choosing their respective speeds with multiple servers under a sum power constraint to minimize the flow time + energy is considered. This problem is a generalization of the flow time minimization problem…

We study a class of scheduling problems, where each job is divided into a batch of unit-size tasks and these tasks can be executed in parallel on multiple servers with New-Better-than-Used (NBU) service time distributions. While many delay…

Consider a problem in which $n$ jobs that are classified into $k$ types arrive over time at their release times and are to be scheduled on a single machine so as to minimize the maximum flow time. The machine requires a setup taking $s$…

It is well known that size-based scheduling policies, which take into account job size (i.e., the time it takes to run them), can perform very desirably in terms of both response time and fairness. Unfortunately, the requirement of knowing…

We revisit the classical problem of minimizing the total flow time of jobs on a single machine in the online setting where jobs arrive over time. It has long been known that the Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) algorithm is optimal…

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?…
