Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide techniques for scheduling jobs on a multi-node computing system based on the predicted environmental impact of executing the jobs. In one embodiment, a plurality of job plans may be generated for processing a requested job on the multi-node computing system. The environmental impacts resulting from executing each job plan may be estimated by matching the job plans to stored data based on standardized executions of job plans. Further, environmental impacts may be estimated by matching the job plans to stored data based on actual environmental measurements obtained during prior executions of the job plan on the multi-node computer system. The job may be executed using a job plan selected based on predicted environmental impacts and time performance.
