Characterizing resource allocation heuristics for heterogeneous computing systems
Altmetrics
Abstract
In many distributed computing environments, collections of applications need to be processed using a set of heterogeneous computing (HC) resources to maximize some performance goal. An important research problem in these environments is how to assign resources to applications (matching) and order the execution of the applications (scheduling) so as to maximize some performance criterion without violating any constraints. This process of matching and scheduling is called mapping. To make meaningful comparisons among mapping heuristics, a system designer needs to understand the assumptions made ...
