As a result a proper interleaving of data transfer and job execution has a significant impact on the overall efficiency. In this paper we analyze the computational complexity of the shared data job scheduling problem, with and without consideration of storage capacity constraint. We show that if there is an upper bound on the server capacity, the problem is NP-complete, even when each job depends on at most three data. On the other hand, if there is no upper bound on the server capacity, we show that there exists an efficient algorithm that gives optimal job schedule when each job depends on at most two data. We also give an effective heuristic algorithm that gives good schedule for cases where there is no limit on the number of data a job may access. Experimental results indicate that this heuristic algorithm performs very well, and gives near optimal solutions.1 Introduction 1 2 System Model 5 2.1 Unlimited Capacity Model . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 2.2 Limited Capacity Model . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 2.3 Problem . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 3 Algorithms for Unlimited Capacity Model 8 3.1 Optimal Algorithm for Jobs with Two Data . . . . . . . . . . 11 4 Limited Capacity Model 18 5 Heuristic Algorithm 22 5.1 Minimum-Upload-Maximum-Execute . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 5.2 Longest Job First . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 5.3 Earliest Completion First . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24 5.4 Random . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24 6 Experimental Result 25 7 Conclusion 30339238 bytesapplication/pdfen-US互享資料, 工作排程shared data, job schedulingthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/53763/1/ntu-96-R94922149-1.pdf
