Task Scheduling in Heterogeneous Computing Systems Based on Machine Learning Approach

摘要

Task scheduling problem of heterogeneous computing system (HCS), which with increasing popularity, nowadays has become a research hotspot in this domain. The task scheduling problem of HCS, which can be described essentially as assigning tasks to the proper processor for executing, has been shown to be NP-complete. However, the existing scheduling algorithm suffers from an inherent limitation of lacking global view. Here, we reported a novel task scheduling algorithm based on Multi-Logistic Regression theory (called MLRS) in heterogeneous computing environment. First, we collected the best scheduling plans as the historical training set, and then a scheduling model was established by which we could predict the following schedule action. Through the analysis of experimental results, it is interpreted that the proposed algorithm has better optimization effect and robustness.
