Deft Scheduling of Dynamic Cloud Workflows with Varying Deadlines via Mixture-of-Experts
- 采用多个专家分工处理不同紧度截止时间的任务
- 比现有方法降低37%执行成本,减少41%超时任务
- 适合需要高可靠性与灵活调度的云平台研发人员
云计算中的工作流调度需智能分配动态到达、具有不同截止时间的图结构工作流到不断变化的虚拟机资源。现有深度强化学习调度器受限于单一路径推理架构,难以应对多样调度场景。本文提出DEFT(Deadline-perceptive Mixture-of-Experts),首个将专家混合架构应用于动态云工作流调度的方法。每个专家专精处理特定截止时间紧度的任务,通过图自适应门控机制,结合工作流有向无环图、任务状态和虚拟机条件,利用交叉注意力实现细粒度、截止时间敏感的专家激活。实验表明,在动态云工作流基准上,DEFT显著降低执行成本与截止时间违反率,优于多个先进DRL基线方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Workflow scheduling in cloud computing demands the intelligent allocation of dynamically arriving, graph-structured workflows with varying deadlines onto ever-changing virtual machine resources. However, existing deep reinforcement learning (DRL) schedulers remain limited by rigid, single-path inference architectures that struggle to handle diverse scheduling scenarios. We introduce $\textbf{DEFT}$ ($\textbf{D}$eadline-p$\textbf{E}$rceptive Mixture-o$\textbf{F}$-Exper$\textbf{t}$s), an innovative DRL policy architecture that leverages a specialized mixture of experts, each trained to manage different levels of deadline tightness. To our knowledge, DEFT is the first to introduce and validate a Mixture-of-Experts architecture for dynamic cloud workflow scheduling. By adaptively routing decisions through the most appropriate experts, DEFT is capable of meeting a broad spectrum of deadline requirements that no single expert can achieve. Central to DEFT is a $\textbf{graph-adaptive}$ gating mechanism that encodes workflow DAGs, task states, and VM conditions, using cross-attention to guide expert activation in a fine-grained, deadline-sensitive manner. Experiments on dynamic cloud workflow benchmarks demonstrate that DEFT significantly reduces execution cost and deadline violations, outperforming multiple state-of-the-art DRL baselines.
