Recording medium storing therein a dynamic job scheduling program, job scheduling apparatus, and job scheduling method

Abstract

A job scheduling apparatus determines an assignment order, which is the order in which jobs are assigned to a computational resource, on the basis of priority levels and being associated with the assignment order. The apparatus assigns the jobs to the computational resource on the basis of the assignment order. The apparatus reduces the priority levels for the jobs that have been assigned to the computational resource. The apparatus increases the priority levels with time. Regarding a priority level among the priority levels, if, at a future time, which is a fixed time period from the start of execution of the jobs, an amount of an increase in the priority level is expected to be equal to or larger than an amount of a reduction in the priority level for a job, assignment of the job to the computational resource is executed.
