Process pipeline scheduling

چکیده
Two processes, p and q, may be scheduled in pipeline when q may start when p starts, and q may process data items from p, one-by-one, without waiting for p to write the complete set of data items. This paper explores how process pipeline scheduling may become a viable strategy for executing workflows. The paper first details a workflow model that captures the characteristics of the application programs that pipeline scheduling requires. It proceeds by showing that the process pipeline scheduling problem is NPComplete. Then, it describes a specific algorithm that pipelines as many processes as possible, within the bounds of the storage space available, based on a greedy process scheduling heuristics that has acceptable performance. Finally, the paper presents a detailed example that illustrates how the algorithm schedules processes.

Detailed Scheduling of Tree-like Pipeline Networks with Multiple Refineries
In the oil supply chain, the refined petroleum products are transported by various transportation modes, such as rail, road, vessel and pipeline. The latter provides one of the safest and cheapest ways to connect production areas to local markets. This paper addresses the operational scheduling of a multi-product tree-like pipeline connecting several refineries to multiple distribution centers ...
متن کاملAn Improved Optimization Model for Scheduling of a Multi-Product Tree-Like Pipeline
In the petroleum supply chain, oil refined products are often delivered to distribution centers by pipelines since they provide the most reliable and economical mode of transportation over large distances. This paper addresses the optimal scheduling of a complex pipeline network with multiple branching lines. The main challenge is to find the optimal sequence and time of product injections/deli...
متن کاملOn the Complexity of Process Pipeline Scheduling
This paper explores how process pipeline scheduling may become a viable strategy for executing workflows. It first details a workflow optimization and execution algorithm that reduces runtime space. The optimization strategy pipelines the communication between as many processes as possible, within the bounds of the storage space available, and depends on generic properties of datasets and proce...
متن کاملIncremental ETL Pipeline Scheduling for Near Real-Time Data Warehouses
We present our work based on an incremental ETL pipeline for on-demand data warehouse maintenance. Pipeline parallelism is exploited to concurrently execute a chain of maintenance jobs, each of which takes a batch of delta tuples extracted from source-local transactions with commit timestamps preceding the arrival time of an incoming warehouse query and calculates Ąnal deltas to bring relevant ...
متن کاملDynamic scheduling of multiproduct pipelines with multiple delivery due dates
Scheduling product batches in pipelines is a very complex task with many constraints to be considered. Several papers have been published on the ubject during the last decade. Most of them are based on large-size MILP discrete time scheduling models whose computational efficiency greatly iminishes for rather long time horizons. Recently, an MILP continuous problem representation in both time an...
