This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will support research at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to develop new methods for online scheduling algorithms. The $190,473 award, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026, aims to investigate the effectiveness of online scheduling techniques for a variety of computing problems. The research objectives include developing new gradient-descent methods for online scheduling, using bin-packing to study admission-control problems, creating fine-grained scheduling algorithms for low-dimensional environments, refining online algorithms as workloads approach system limits, and exploring new models for scheduling interdependent jobs. The research findings are expected to provide an alternative approach to educating students on scheduling and have a significant impact on the computer science curriculum. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
