 Introduction to Enterprise Job Scheduling :: www.nextslm.org: The Service Level Management Learning Community
Several computing job scheduling architectures have emerged for heterogeneous, distributed environments: collaborative; master and agent; and variations of master and agent which include master, submaster, agent, and console, master and agent.
Job scheduling comprises one of the most important components in a production-computing environment.
With the large distributed computing environments, some job schedulers have not scaled to meet the challenges of enterprise computing.

 Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing ('EPIC) is a computing paradigm that began to be researched in the 1990s.
One goal is to move the complexity of dynamic scheduling of multiple instruction issue from the hardware implementation to the compiler, which can do the instruction scheduling statically (with help of trace feedback information).
They have been less successful in general purpose computing as it is debatable whether there is enough inherent instruction level parallelism in general purpose programs that these new features can exploit.

 Preemption - Xen Wiki
Preemption is important to "real time" applications running in Virtual Machines (DomU) as well in the scheduling of multiple VMs (Dom0).
In theory, this can impact general performance, scheduler latency, user experience, and real time computing.
Kernel Preemption strives towards a CPU that is performing "higest priority processing" at any given time slice and is both art and technique.

 Scheduling Tasks with Mixed Preemption Relations for Robustness to Timing Faults
Scheduling Tasks with Mixed Preemption Relations for Robustness to Timing Faults
We show that the preemption threshold logic for mapping tasks to as few threads as possible can rule out the schedules with the highest critical scaling factors --- these schedules are the least likely to miss deadlines under timing faults.
Barriers prevent the preemption threshold logic that runs multiple design-time tasks in the same run-time thread from violating architectural constraints, e.g.

In general, a cache scheduling policy is a way to decide, in the case that a process requests a page which is not presently in the cache, which cache frame should have its contents replaced.
The goal of this project is to find a genetic algorithm that will successfully evolve a useful cache scheduling algorithm.

 Embedded Papers - Scheduling Fixed-Priority Tasks with Preemption Threshold
In this paper, we use the notion of preemption threshold, first introduced by Express Logic, Inc. in their ThreadX real-time operating system, to develop a scheduling model that subsumes both preemptive and non-preemptive fixed priority scheduling.
We develop the equations for computing the worst-case response times, using the concept of level-i busy period.
Preemption threshold allows a task to only disable preemption of tasks up to a specified threshold priority.

BlueCat is a standard Linux distribution with the open software scheduling algorithms which include some preemption points for priority management.
Early QNX OS technology focused on x86 platforms (QNX produced the first OS to support a hard disk, to offer protected-mode computing, and the first RTOS to run on a 386).
Another aspect of RTOS is that the computation it provides cannot only be "correct" (as in traditional operating systems), but that it has to be correct within a certain time constraint.

LSF is a very powerful scheduler which distributes computing load efficiently among all computational servers.
After the job is submitted, you can look at the scheduling status of all jobs including yours running on Chastity and other ATN computational servers.
Of course, if Zephyr is at full load (60 job slots are already being used), any jobs you submit will also pend even though you have not reached your user job slot limit.

 Job Scheduling Software
One topic the Operations Guide series covers is job scheduling (you can access the Job Scheduling Operations Guide at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/maintain/opsguide/jobschog.asp.) Mainframe-based IT shops have long used job-scheduling packages to reduce total operating cost, to more reliably carry out routine and predictable application maintenance and reporting tasks, and to make better use of available computing resources.
Some job scheduling systems can detect specific error conditions that cause a scheduled job to abend and automatically execute a job to recover from the error.
Other job scheduling systems can track changes to production job definitions and implement procedural controls to ensure that someone tests and approves changes to production jobs before they run.
