讲座简介:It is common nowadays that multiple cores reside on the same chip and share the on-chip cache. Resource sharing may cause performance degradation of the co-running jobs. Job co-scheduling is a technique that can effectively alleviate the contention. Many co-schedulers have been developed in the literature, but most of them do not aim to find the optimal co-scheduling solution. Being able to determine the optimal solution is critical for evaluating co-scheduling systems. Moreover, most co-schedulers only consider serial jobs. However, there often exist both parallel and serial jobs in many situations. This talk presents our work to tackle these issues. In this work, a graph-based method is developed to find the optimal co-scheduling solution for serial jobs, and then the method is extended to incorporate parallel jobs. A number of optimization measures are also developed to accelerate the solving process. Moreover, a flexible approximation technique is proposed to strike the balance between the solving speed and the solution quality.
