16 * The NQ algorithm adopts a two-speed model. When there is an idle server
17 * available, the job will be sent to the idle server, instead of waiting
18 * for a fast one. When there is no idle server available, the job will be
19 * sent to the server that minimize its expected delay (The Shortest
20 * Expected Delay scheduling algorithm).
22 * See the following paper for more information:
23 * A. Weinrib and S. Shenker, Greed is not enough: Adaptive load sharing
24 * in large heterogeneous systems. In Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM'88,
25 * pages 986-994, 1988.
27 * Thanks must go to Marko Buuri <marko@buuri.name> for talking NQ to me.
29 * The difference between NQ and SED is that NQ can improve overall

88 * The comparison of h1*w2 > h2*w1 is equivalent to that of
90 * if every weight is larger than zero.
