Abstract:We present a novel task scheduling scheme for accelerating computational applications involving distributed iterative processes that are executed on networked computing resources. Such an application consists of multiple tasks, each of which outputs data at each iteration to be processed by neighboring tasks; these dependencies between the tasks can be represented as a directed graph. We first mathematically formulate the problem as a Binary Quadratic Program (BQP), accounting for both computation and communic… Show more
