Abstract
Various technologies pertaining to scheduling network traffic in a network are described. A request to transfer data from a first computing device to a second computing device includes data that identifies a volume of the data to be transferred and a deadline, where the data is to be transferred prior to the deadline. A long-term schedule is computed based upon the request, wherein the long-term schedule defines flow of traffic through the network over a relatively long time horizon. A short-term schedule is computed based upon the long-term schedule, where devices in the network are configured based upon the short-term schedule.
