Abstract

See full text

Disclosed example methods for scheduling a computer-executable job include determining valid combinations of nodes and links from a network of nodes interconnected by links, the valid combinations of nodes and links having capability and capacity to complete the computer-executable job; determining, from the valid combinations of nodes and links, first combinations of nodes and links based on a total cost associated with execution of the computer-executable job on corresponding ones of the valid combinations of nodes and links; selecting one of the first combinations of nodes and links based on a load balancing status between the first combinations of nodes and links; and scheduling the computer-executable job to be executed by the one of the first combinations of nodes and links.
