16 * The SED algorithm attempts to minimize each job's expected delay until
17 * completion. The expected delay that the job will experience is
18 * (Ci + 1) / Ui if sent to the ith server, in which Ci is the number of
19 * jobs on the ith server and Ui is the fixed service rate (weight) of
20 * the ith server. The SED algorithm adopts a greedy policy that each does
21 * what is in its own best interest, i.e. to join the queue which would
22 * minimize its expected delay of completion.
24 * See the following paper for more information:
25 * A. Weinrib and S. Shenker, Greed is not enough: Adaptive load sharing
26 * in large heterogeneous systems. In Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM'88,
27 * pages 986-994, 1988.
29 * Thanks must go to Marko Buuri <marko@buuri.name> for talking SED to me.
31 * The difference between SED and WLC is that SED includes the incoming
32 * job in the cost function (the increment of 1). SED may outperform
33 * WLC, while scheduling big jobs under larger heterogeneous systems
34 * (the server weight varies a lot).
