Abstract
A method and a system embodying the method for job pre-scheduling in a processing system comprising distributed job management, encompassing: determining a maximum amount of pre-schedulable jobs for each of a plurality of engines; setting for each of the plurality of engines a threshold less than or equal to the maximum amount; pre-scheduling by a scheduler an amount of jobs less than or equal to the threshold to at least one of a plurality of job managers; determining at the at least one of the plurality of job managers managing one of the plurality of engines one of a plurality of data processing devices in order for each pre-scheduled job; and assigning the job to the determined data processing device.
