Several processor allocation studies show that the performance of noncontiguous allocation
is dramatically better than that of contiguous allocation, but this is not always true. The …

The performance of non-contiguous allocation can be significantly affected by the job
scheduling strategy used for determining the order in which jobs are selected for execution …

In parallel systems, processors are connected through interconnection network; one of the
most widely used architectures is the 2D and 3D mesh-connected architectures. This is …

In non-contiguous allocation, a job request can be split into smaller parts that are allocated
possibly non-adjacent free sub-meshes rather than always waiting until a single sub-mesh …

Contiguous processor allocation is useful for security and accounting reasons. This is due to
the allocated jobs are separated from one another, where each sub-mesh of processors is …

The performance of non-contiguous allocation has been traditionally carried out by means of
simulations based on synthetic workloads, and also it can be significantly affected by the job …

The paper concerns task allocation problem in mesh structured system. The dynamic case is
considered. Four allocation algorithms have been evaluated. The research was focused on …

Although contiguous allocation is known to suffer from high processor fragmentation, it is
useful for security and accounting reasons. This is because the allocated jobs are isolated …

This paper concerns the problem of finding efficient task allocation algorithms in mesh
structures. An allocation algorithm, called Window-Based-Best-Fit with Validated …

In non-contiguous allocation, a job request can be split into smaller parts that are allocated
