Abstract
Large parallel processing environments present serious administrative challenges if high utilization of the available resources is a goal. In many cases there is also the need to support critical or time-dependent applications at the same time as development and routine production work is going on.
This paper describes the components that help realize the Political Scheduling goals of the CRAY T3E system. The meaning of Political Scheduling is defined, we present a general overview of the Cray T3E hardware and operating system and describe the current implementation of the Political Scheduling feature of Unicos/mk.
