Abstract

Embodiments for efficient queue management for cluster scheduling and managing task queues for tasks which are to be executed in a distributed computing environment. Both centralized and distributed scheduling is provided. Task queues may be bound by length-based bounding or delay-based bounding. Tasks may be prioritized and task queues may be dynamically reordered based on task priorities. Job completion times and cluster resource utilization may both be improved.
