Abstract

Researches have demonstrated that runtime scheduling with respect to parallelism can provide a low-overhead load balancing with global load information. In this paper, we present a new approach that is with respect to job parallelism for computational grid. The approach has the capability of redressing the amount of parallel jobs automatically through grain size and other significant factors we specified. As all the jobs parallelized have been divided by an aptotic grain size before being scheduled, the approach can analyze and manage the affiliation of parallel jobs automatically. The approach is so polished that scheduling can be adjusted in real time with little delay. It provides high-quality load balancing for parallel jobs and is universal for computational grid making every grid resource work efficiently, not only as a good scheduling scheme but also as a scheme for scheduling and managing job parallelism.
