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