    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention manage workloads in a high-throughput computing environment for a hybrid processing system. A set of high-throughput computing service level agreements (SLAs) is retrieved. The set of SLAs is associated with a hybrid processing system including a server system and a set of accelerator systems, where each system has a different architecture. A first set of data-parallel workload tasks scheduled on the server system and a second set of data-parallel workload tasks scheduled with the set of accelerator systems are identified. At least a portion of one of the first set of data-parallel workload tasks and the second set of data-parallel workload tasks is dynamically rescheduled on a second one of the server system and the set of accelerator systems. The dynamically rescheduling substantially satisfies the set of high-throughput computing SLAs.

    Abstract: A method of performing congestion management in a network is provided. The method includes monitoring a congestion status at a switch in the network. It is determined at the switch that the congestion status indicates that there is congestion at the switch. Based on the congestion being related to data received at the switch from a source at a first rate, a first message is transmitted from the switch to the source requesting the source to send the data at a second rate that is slower than the first rate. Based on the congestion being related to data requests received at the switch from a destination at third rate, a second message is transmitted from the switch to the destination requesting the destination to request the data at a fourth rate slower than the third rate.

    Abstract: An improved computer system may include a server carrying a computer processor in a Fiber Channel over Convergence Enhanced Ethernet (FCoCEE) network. The system may also include a reservation system in communication with the server that utilizes enhanced transmission selection (ETS) to reserve bandwidth for a priority group by scheduling bandwidth for the priority group based upon a projected workload.
