Title: Trevor D. Davis and Decentralized Scheduling for Unstable Networks.

Introduction

Trevor D. Davis is an inventor based in Melissa, Texas, and is associated with Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation. His patent work addresses the challenge of coordinating computation jobs across networks whose nodes may have varying resources and availability.

Latest Patents

Davis is credited with 1 patent: “Decentralized Scheduler of Computation Jobs for Unstable Network of Heterogeneous Nodes.” The invention describes a scheduler that gathers information about connected nodes, including their resource capacity, and evaluates whether they can handle jobs waiting in its input queue. It also estimates each suitable node’s reliability using historical availability data.

The scheduler selects a node for a job while accounting for the possibility that a later job with equal or greater resource requirements may arrive during execution. This approach aims to balance immediate job deployment against the risk of leaving a more demanding subsequent job waiting.

Career Highlights

Davis’s listed patent connects his inventive work with Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation. The patent focuses on decentralized job scheduling in unstable, heterogeneous computing networks.
