Is there any algorithm implemented in Maui (like bin packing) used for scheduling jobs optimally ?<br><br>regards,<br>Khaz Sapenov,<br>Enomaly, <br>Toronto, Canada<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/22/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">

<br> The idea behind this was that it would be more efficient to<br>consider all jobs as sitting in a single, prioritized queue<br>with all nodes accessible by that queue. So, Maui can<br>schedule any job on the system on any node, constrained by
<br>job requirements and node attributes. This means that<br>resource fragmentation from dividing up the nodes into different<br>queues is avoided.<br><br>Kenneth<br><br>On Wed, 22 Aug 2007, Lennart Karlsson wrote:<br><br>
