Abstract
The present invention relates to Data Center Network (DCN) flow scheduling scheme. It provides a dynamic scheduling algorithm and a hybrid of centralized and decentralized scheduling system to improve the performance of DCN and data parallel application. The scheduling system uses a central controller to collect the real-time bandwidth of each node, and schedule the priority as well as transmission rate of each network flow set combined by application context (Coflow [1]). The centralized scheduling avoids a sophisticated system design and hardware (switch) modification to comparing with full decentralized solutions. The combination of centralization and decentralization decreases the average completion time of Coflows, and eventually improve the performance of data parallel applications.
