Paper on scheduling for reduced tail task latencies
Smita Vijayakumar went along to Seattle to SOCC 2024 to present her PhD research on Murmuration. This is a new scheduler for Kubernetes that allows for 15%--25% faster job completion times than the default scheduler for different job arrival characteristics in datacenters that are very busy.
Unfortunately, the videos from SOCC don't seem to be online yet (I could only find SOCC 2020), but I'll update this if they do show up.
