The Emerging Challenge of Variable Capacity Scheduling
Abstract
This book focuses on managing and allocating resources in the new age of renewable power generation. High-performance computing platforms, data centers and cloud computing environments all experience fluctuating capacity over time due to external factors like weather patterns or grid conditions. From a computing perspective, the goal is to optimize resource utilization and minimize disruptions by dynamically adjusting job scheduling and resource allocation strategies in response to these capacity variations. From a societal perspective, the opportunity is to enhance sustainability efforts and to minimize the environmental impact of computing.
