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.

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.

Aurora-X: Built for Extreme Time Series Forecasting

Aurora‑X is a billion‑parameter time‑series foundation model designed for extreme forecasting tasks. It employs a progressive curriculum that starts with channel‑independent pretraining, then adds cross‑variable dependencies, variable context and horizon lengths, and optional future covariates during mid‑training. A variable‑resolution post‑training stage allows adjustable temporal spans per token at inference, while a pattern‑guided mixture‑of‑experts expands capacity through sparse activation and expert specialization. An implicit quantile network head predicts arbitrary quantiles, enhancing probabilistic forecasting flexibility. Experiments on GIFT‑Eval, TIME, FEV‑Bench, TFB, and DAG‑Bench show state‑of‑the‑art performance against both pretrained TSFMs and task‑specific supervised models.
