Abstract

See full text

A method, and associated system and computer program product, for dispatching two or more jobs for execution in a computing system including processors configured to execute the jobs in parallel. Each processor is associated with a corresponding queue having a queue size equal to a maximum number of jobs that may be in the queue. A new job requested for execution is assigned to a current class. An indication is retrieved of a last processor of the processors of the current class to which a last job of jobs of the current class has been submitted for execution. An indication is retrieved of a delta number of the jobs submitted for execution to the last processor of the current class after the last job of the current class. The new job for execution is submitted to a last processor of the current class or a selected processor.
