Abstract
A job management apparatus that searches for an available node to which a job is allocatable in an n-dimensional mesh-connected or n-dimensional torus-connected computer network, includes: a one-dimensional search information generating unit that generates one-dimensional search information related to one dimension of n dimensions, which includes a plurality of bits and which indicates, using one-bit information, whether or not the job is allocatable for each of computation nodes belonging to the one dimension; a search information generating unit that generates a search mask pattern with as many bits as corresponds to the plurality of bits, which includes consecutive bits being set to a preset value and corresponding to a size required by the job in the one dimension; and an available node searching unit that searches for the available node by performing, for the one dimension, a preset logic operation with the one-dimensional search information and the search mask pattern.
