Job Scheduler Parameter Analysis for Evaluation of Effectiveness

The use of PC cluster systems composed of many PCs is largely spread in these days. It is important to improve system usage keeping proper fair-share policy. This optimization problem is difficult to solve. In scheduler soft-ware, there are many parameters and the effectiveness of many parameters is related with each other complicatedly. Therefore it is more difficult to find optimal parameter con-figuration to improve the system usage efficiency. So in this paper, we performed various analyses of those parameters and report the results.
