iScheduler: Reinforcement Learning-Driven Continual Optimization for Large-Scale Resource Investment Problems

iScheduler is a reinforcement‑learning‑driven framework that tackles large‑scale Resource Investment Problems (RIP) by modeling them as a Markov decision process over decomposed subproblems and building schedules through sequential process selection. The approach speeds up optimization and allows efficient reconfiguration by reusing unchanged process schedules and only rescheduling affected processes. Using the new L‑RIPLIB benchmark, iScheduler achieves competitive resource costs while cutting time to feasibility by up to 43× compared to leading solver‑backed baselines.

A Learning Method with Gap-Aware Generation for Heterogeneous DAG Scheduling

arXiv:2603. 23249v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Efficient scheduling of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) is a core problem in large-scale data-intensive computing systems, where query plans, data-processing workloads, and computation graphs consist of dependent tasks competing for limited heterogeneous resource pools.

PeakBench: Benchmarking Resource-Aware Tool Invocation in LLM Agents

PeakBench is a new benchmark designed to evaluate how large language model agents invoke multiple tools while respecting resource constraints and parallel execution. It provides executable multi‑tool workflows with dependency annotations and measured resource profiles, and introduces a two‑part evaluation framework that separates logical planning from physical scheduling. The study shows that strong logical planning alone does not guarantee safe or efficient execution, and that providing resource information can reduce overflows and improve utilization.
