Overview:

This program takes in an input graph via a .dot file, this directed acyclic graph has nodes and edges with weights that represent processing time and communication costs between processors respectively. Each node represents a task which can be scheduled on a processor. This scheduler will find a valid schedule to return.

• Run JAR: java -jar scheduler-final-T4.jar <INPUT.dot> <P> [OPTIONS]

Required	Description
<INPUT.dot>	A task graph with integer weights in dot format
<P>	Number of processors to schedule the INPUT graph on

Options	Description
-p <NUMBER-OF-CORES>	Use the specified number of cores to compute schedule in parallel
-v	Visualize the search
-o <OUTPUT.dot>	Name of file to save output schedule to

• To get help:
  • java -jar scheduler-final-T4.jar --help
  • This will prints information on how to use the JAR file

Build Maven project

1. Run mvn package. This should generate a target folder on top directory
2. Open up a terminal and cd to the target folder
3. Run scheduler-final-T4.jar
4. It should run fine, if not, run mvn clean and try again.
5. The output file should be in the same directory as your jar. i.e top level directory in target folder

For IntelliJ or eclipse users

Make sure to enable auto imports, as a maven project might mess with importing otherwise.
