Abstract: The problem of scheduling tasks across loosely-coupled distributed processors systems has been proven to be NP-complete. Various heuristics have been proposed to achieve suboptimal solutions to this problem within acceptable computation complexity bounds. However, most proposals assume that the task model remains constant across program executions. This paper deals with the scheduling of tasks in parallel programs in which conditional branches are associated with task spawn and message passing... (Update)

...non preemptive scheduling. The case where the task model differs between program executions is handled by a system named ATME [Oudshoorn and Huang, 1997]. 2 Preemptive Task Model The task model [Huang and Oudshoorn, 1998] of a preemptive parallel program is represented by a...

.... prior to execution [11] An additional attribute, execution probability, which is associated with task interconnection is introduced in [12]. To date, non preemptive task scheduling has been the primary focus in this research area. Consequently, it is a common assumption that...
