Dynamic resource management in HPC

Primary tabs

Dynamic resource allocation and scheduling is key for an optimal resource utilization. In this research line we target system software for a smart allocation taking into consideration application characteristics for MPI+OpenMP applications. 

Summary

Dynamic resource allocation and scheduling is key for an optimal resource utilization. In this research line we target system software for a smart allocation taking into consideration application characteristics for MPI+OpenMP applications. Our research uses SLURM as DRM as a proff of concept of our proposals in real systems and the BSC SLURM simulator  as the platform for large scale experiments. 

Objectives

  • Dynamic resource allocation in HPC
    • Coodination between applications and scheduler
    • Holistic job scheduling for efficient allocations
    • Job scheduling for energy efficient systems
