Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A new model for task scheduling that dramatically improves the efficiency of parallel systems Task scheduling for parallel systems can become a quagmire of heuristics, models, and methods that have been developed over the past decades. The author of this innovative text cuts through the confusion and complexity by presenting a consistent and comprehensive theoretical framework along with realistic parallel system models. These new models, based on an investigation of the concepts and principles underlying task scheduling, take into account heterogeneity, contention for communication resources, and the involvement of the processor in communications. For readers who may be new to task scheduling, the first chapters are essential. They serve as an excellent introduction to programming parallel systems, and they place task scheduling within the context of the program parallelization process. The author then reviews the basics of graph theory, discussing the major graph models used to represent parallel programs. Next, the author introduces his task scheduling framework. He carefully explains the theoretical background of this framework and provides several examples to enable readers to fully understand how it greatly simplifies and, at the same time, enhances the ability to schedule. The second half of the text examines both basic and advanced scheduling techniques, offering readers a thorough understanding of the principles underlying scheduling algorithms. The final two chapters address communication contention in scheduling and processor involvement in communications. Each chapter features exercises that help readers put their new skills into practice. An extensive bibliography leads to additional information for further research. Finally, the use of figures and examples helps readers better visualize and understand complex concepts and processes. Researchers and students in distributed and parallel computer systems will find that this text dramatically improves their ability to schedule tasks accurately and efficiently. Extending beyond the classic approach by focusing on more advanced, accurate, and realistic models, this book investigates the concepts and techniques of task scheduling by developing a consistent and unifying theoretical framework. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Parallel processing has seen incredible growth with increasingly complex scientific & engg applications coming to their realm.Task scheduling,a key issue for its success,& design of efficient algorithms play a crucial role in it.Due to NP-completeness of the problem research efforts are mainly focussed at heuristic-based approaches to generate near-optimal schedules within reasonable time & resource constraints.Most of the heuristics, however, ignore practical aspect and/or compromise too much on complexity or performance.This monograph provides an in-depth insight into these issues.An overview of state-of-the-art scheduling,reflecting changing paradigms,is also provided.In addition,for scheduling DAG structured applications,3 efficient algorithms are presented & analyzed for homogeneous, heterogeneous & mixed-parallel computing environments.Selective-duplication heuristic is introduced and its usefulness in dealing with IPC overhead is shown in comparison to list,clustering and duplication-based heuristics.An A-cube performance model is suggested to comprehensively study behavior of algorithm, application & architecture in heterogeneous environment.
