Dear scheduling researcher, We are delighted to announce the talk given by Maciej Drozdowski (Poznan UT). The title is "Scheduling divisible loads". The seminar will take place on Zoom on Wednesday, October 23 at 13:00 UTC. Join Zoom Meeting https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/96350506239?pwd=QlxrGyT3FiSaawN9eQqBj7u8pdF5IU.1 Meeting ID: 963 5050 6239 Passcode: 185009 You can follow the seminar online or offline on our Youtube channel as well: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUoCNnaAfw5NAntItILFn4A The abstract follows. In this talk divisible load theory (DLT) will be introduced. The theory is a scheduling and computer performance model applicable in data-parallel applications. Its basic assumption is that the computing work can be divided into pieces of arbitrary sizes and these pieces can be processed independently in parallel. In the talk we will proceed from the basic formulation of divisible load scheduling on heterogeneous system to a formulation for multi-installment divisible load processing in heterogeneous system with hierarchical memory and energy constraints. NP-hardness of various DLT scheduling problem variants will be considered. Application of DLT as isoefficiency maps visualizing parallel processing performance relationships will be demonstrated. The next talk in our series will be: Hugo Chareyre (Artelys) | November 6 | Operational scheduling in automotive industry For more details, please visit https://schedulingseminar.com/ With kind regards Zdenek, Mike and Guohua -- Zdenek Hanzalek Industrial Informatics Department, Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics, Czech Technical University in Prague, Jugoslavskych partyzanu 1580/3, 160 00 Prague 6, Czech Republic https://rtime.ciirc.cvut.cz/~hanzalek/
