Abstract:To schedule precedence task graphs in a more realistic framework, we introduce an efficient fault tolerant scheduling algorithm that is both contention-aware and capable of supporting ε arbitrary fail-silent (failstop) processor failures. The design of the proposed algorithm which we call Iso-Level CAFT, is motivated by (i) the search for a better loadbalance and (ii) the generation of fewer communications. These goals are achieved by scheduling a chunk of ready tasks simultaneously, which enables for a global… Show more
