A genetic algorithm for multiprocessor scheduling

The problem of multiprocessor scheduling can be stated as finding a schedule for a general task graph to be executed on a multiprocessor system so that the schedule length can be minimized. This scheduling problem is known to be NP-hard, and methods based on heuristic search have been proposed to obtain optimal and suboptimal solutions. Genetic algorithms have recently received much attention as a class of robust stochastic search algorithms for various optimization problems. In this paper, an efficient method based on genetic algorithms is developed to solve the multiprocessor scheduling problem. The representation of the search node is based on the order of the tasks being executed in each individual processor. The genetic operator proposed is based on the precedence relations between the tasks in the task graph. Simulation results comparing the proposed genetic algorithm, the list scheduling algorithm, and the optimal schedule using random task graphs, and a robot inverse dynamics computational task graph are presented     

Task scheduling of parallel programs to optimize communications for cluster of SMPs

This paper discusses the compile time task scheduling of parallel program running on cluster of SMP workstations. Firstly, the problem is stated formally and transformed into a graph parti-tion problem and proved to be NP-Complete. A heuristic algorithm MMP-Solver is then proposed to solve the problem. Experiment result shows that the task scheduling can reduce communication over-head of parallel applications greatly and MMP-Solver outperforms the existing algorithms.     

Scheduling precedence constrained task graphs with non-negligibleintertask communication onto multiprocessors

The multiprocessor scheduling problem is the problem of scheduling the tasks of a precedence constrained task graph (representing a parallel program) onto the processors of a multiprocessor in a way that minimizes the completion time. Since this problem is known to be NP-hard in the strong sense in all but a few very restricted eases, heuristic algorithms are being developed which obtain near optimal schedules in a reasonable amount of computation time. We present an efficient heuristic algorithm for scheduling precedence constrained task graphs with nonnegligible intertask communication onto multiprocessors taking contention in the communication channels into consideration. Our algorithm for obtaining satisfactory suboptimal schedules is based on the classical list scheduling strategy. It simultaneously exploits the schedule-holes generated in the processors and in the communication channels during the scheduling process in order to produce better schedules. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm by comparing with two competing heuristic algorithms available in the literature     

On parallelizing the multiprocessor scheduling problem

Existing heuristics for scheduling a node and edge weighted directed task graph to multiple processors can produce satisfactory solutions but incur high time complexities, which tend to exacerbate in more realistic environments with relaxed assumptions. Consequently, these heuristics do not scale well and cannot handle problems of moderate sizes. A natural approach to reducing complexity, while aiming for a similar or potentially better solution, is to parallelize the scheduling algorithm. This can be done by partitioning the task graphs and concurrently generating partial schedules for the partitioned parts, which are then concatenated to obtain the final schedule. The problem, however, is nontrivial as there exists dependencies among the nodes of a task graph which must be preserved for generating a valid schedule. Moreover, the time clock for scheduling is global for all the processors (that are executing the parallel scheduling algorithm), making the inherent parallelism invisible. In this paper, we introduce a parallel algorithm that is guided by a systematic partitioning of the task graph to perform scheduling using multiple processors. The algorithm schedules both the tasks and messages, and is suitable for graphs with arbitrary computation and communication costs, and is applicable to systems with arbitrary network topologies using homogeneous or heterogeneous processors. We have implemented the algorithm on the Intel Paragon and compared it with three closely related algorithms. The experimental results indicate that our algorithm yields higher quality solutions while using an order of magnitude smaller scheduling times. The algorithm also exhibits an interesting trade-off between the solution quality and speedup while scaling well with the problem size

Computational models and task scheduling for parallel sparse Cholesky factorization

In this paper, a systematic and unified treatment of computational task models for parallel sparse Cholesky factorization is presented. They are classified as fine-, medium-, and large-grained graph models. In particular, a new medium-grained model based on column-oriented tasks is introduced, and it is shown to correspond structurally to the filled graph of the given sparse matrix. The task scheduling problem for the various task graphs is also discussed. A practical algorithm to schedule the column tasks of the medium-grained model for multiple processors is described. It is based on a heuristic critical path scheduling method. This will give an overall scheme for parallel sparse Cholesky factorization, appropriate for parallel machines with shared-memory architecture like the Denelcor HEP.
