Abstract
A method for scheduling jobs in a networked computing grid is described. The method includes scheduling jobs to meet goals related to execution of the jobs within the computing grid. The jobs may be scheduled by evaluating job execution goals against available resource slots provided by the computing grid. Also disclosed are related methods for scheduling jobs in which the jobs are submitted to service classes having defined job execution goals, and wherein the jobs are scheduled according to the job execution goals of the service classes.
