Abstract
Techniques described herein relate to a method for managing a distributed multi-tiered computing (DMC) environment. The method includes decomposing, by a local controller associated with an DMC domain, a service dependency graph associated with a scheduling job; assigning normalized compute units and normalized network units to tasks included in the service dependency graph; generating a Q-table using the service dependency graph and reinforcement Q-learning; calculating a critical path and a max learned path using the Q-table and the service dependency graph; calculating the earliest start time and the latest start time for each task using the service dependency graph and the max learned path to obtain a plurality of earliest start time and latest start time pairs for each task; and generating scheduling assignments using the plurality of earliest start time and latest start time pairs for each task.
