Dynamic Core Allocation for Malleable Jobs with Unknown Speed-up Parameters (opens in new tab)

We study dynamic resource allocation in a multicore computing system with a fixed number of processing cores and a stream of {\it malleable} jobs. Each job may adjust its level of parallelism during execution, allowing adaptive redistribution of resources across concurrently active jobs. Jobs belong to one of two observable classes, each characterized by a distinct speed-up function with unknown parameters. The objective is to learn a core-all...
