Abstract
A method and associated system for continuously optimizing data archive management scheduling. A flow network is modeled. The flow network represents data content, software programs, physical devices, and communication capacity of the archive management system in various levels of vertices such that an optimal path in the flow network from a task of at least one archive management task to a worker program of the archive management system represents an optimal initial schedule for the worker program to perform the task.
