Talk Title: Variable Capacity Scheduling

Abstract: We formalize the problem of scheduling jobs on a set of machines, each having a fixed number of resources, and a probability to be alive, computed according to some probability distribution, e.g., random walk. The goal is to maximize the utilization. Several heuristics are designed to efficiently schedule jobs, cleverly deciding which machines to use (trade-off between the load and the probability that the machine will not survive until job completion). We will present simulation results, based on real traces, to compare the performance of various heuristics.

Bio: Anne Benoit is currently an Associate Professor in the Computer Science Laboratory LIP at ENS Lyon, France, and a Senior Member of Institut Universitaire de France. She is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Parallel Computing, Chair of the IEEE CS Technical Committee on Parallel Processing (TCPP), and a senior member of the IEEE. She has chaired the program committee of several major conferences in her field, in particular SC, IPDPS, ICPP and HiPC. Her research interests include algorithm design and scheduling techniques for parallel and distributed platforms, with a focus on energy awareness and resilience.
