Techniques for dynamically assigning jobs to processors in a cluster using local job tables

摘要

A technique for operating a high performance computing cluster includes monitoring workloads of multiple processors. The high performance computing cluster includes multiple nodes that each include two or more of the multiple processors. Workload information for the multiple processors is periodically updated in respective local job tables maintained in each of the multiple nodes. Based on the workload information in the respective local job tables, one or more threads are periodically moved to a different one of the multiple processors.
