Meta-scheduling
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Meta-scheduling or Super scheduling is a computer software technique of optimizing computational workloads by combining an organization's multiple Distributed Resource Managers into a single aggregated view, allowing batch jobs to be directed to the best location for execution.
[edit] Implementations
