What is Proportional-fair scheduling?

Various experiments have been made to evaluate various procedures for fair division, the problem of dividing resources among several people. These include case studies, computerized simulations, and lab experiments.

Input/output scheduling is the method that computer operating systems use to decide in which order I/O operations will be submitted to storage volumes. I/O scheduling is sometimes called disk scheduling.

Run-to-completion scheduling or nonpreemptive scheduling is a scheduling model in which each task runs until it either finishes, or explicitly yields control back to the scheduler. Run to completion systems...

Trace scheduling is an optimization technique developed by Josh Fisher used in compilers for computer programs. A compiler often can, by rearranging its generated machine instructions for faster execution, improve...

NSW Fair Trading is a division of the New South Wales State Government's Department of Customer Service in Australia. The division's focus is to create a fair, safe and equitable...

Least slack time scheduling is an algorithm for dynamic priority scheduling. It assigns priorities to processes based on their slack time. Slack time is the amount of time left after...

Crew scheduling is the process of assigning crews to operate transportation systems, such as rail lines or airlines.

Proportional Share Scheduling is a type of scheduling that preallocates certain amount of CPU time to each of the processes. In a proportional share algorithm every job has a weight,...

In parallel processing, the Hilbert curve scheduling method turns a multidimensional task allocation problem into a one-dimensional space filling problem using Hilbert curves, assigning related tasks to locations with higher...

The modified due-date scheduling heuristic is a greedy heuristic used to solve the single machine total weighted tardiness problem.
