Abstract
In certain aspects, the invention features a system and method including receiving a parent job configured to produce one or more descendant jobs, and scheduling computation of the parent job on a node computing device that is one of a plurality of node computing devices of a distributed computing system. In such an aspect, the distributed computing system further includes a scheduler server configured to selectively reschedule computation of a job other than a parent job from any one of the plurality of node computing devices to another of the node computing devices, and to receive data descriptive of an indication that the parent job is not to be rescheduled unless each of the descendant jobs is completed or terminated. Such an aspect further includes preventing rescheduling of the parent job unless each of the descendant jobs is completed or terminated.
