Toolkit for moldable jobs management in distributed computing systems
Abstract
This paper considers performance of moldable jobs scheduling in distributed computing systems. We proposed a method for describing moldable jobs scripts and create a toolkit for such job management. The toolkit is based on the resource manager PBS/Torque and the Maui scheduler. We study the queue waiting time and makespan during the servicing sets of moldable jobs. The results of the study show that usage of moldable jobs allows us to reduce the average job queue waiting time by 15% and makespan by 25%.
