Abstract

During the last decade, the use of parallel and distributed systems has become more common. Dividing data is one of the challenges in this type of systems. Divisible Load Theory (DLT) is one of the proposed method for scheduling data distribution in parallel or distributed systems. Many researches have been done in this field but scheduling a multi-installment heterogeneous system in which communication mode is blocking has not been addressed. In this paper, we present some closedform formulas for the different steps of scheduling jobs in this type of systems. The results of our experiments show the proposed method gave better performances than the Hsu et al.'s method
