Job Scheduling Strategies for Parallel Processing - IPPS/SPDP '98, Workshop, Orlando, Florida, USA, March 30, 1998. Proceedings

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Job Scheduling Strategies for Parallel Processing held during IPPS/SPDP'98, in Orlando, Florida, USA, in March 1998. The 13 revised full papers presented have gone through an iterated reviewing process and give a report on the state of the art in the area.
