11  * The SED algorithm attempts to minimize each job's expected delay until
12  * completion. The expected delay that the job will experience is
13  * (Ci + 1) / Ui if sent to the ith server, in which Ci is the number of
14  * jobs on the ith server and Ui is the fixed service rate (weight) of
15  * the ith server. The SED algorithm adopts a greedy policy that each does
16  * what is in its own best interest, i.e. to join the queue which would
17  * minimize its expected delay of completion.
18  *
19  * See the following paper for more information:
20  * A. Weinrib and S. Shenker, Greed is not enough: Adaptive load sharing
21  * in large heterogeneous systems. In Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM'88,
22  * pages 986-994, 1988.
23  *
24  * Thanks must go to Marko Buuri <marko@buuri.name> for talking SED to me.
25  *
26  * The difference between SED and WLC is that SED includes the incoming
27  * job in the cost function (the increment of 1). SED may outperform
28  * WLC, while scheduling big jobs under larger heterogeneous systems
29  * (the server weight varies a lot).
