Abstract: Scheduling a distributed application modeled as a directed acyclic task graph over a set of networked compute nodes is a fundamental problem in distributed computing and thus has received substantial scholarly attention. Most existing solutions, however, fall short of accommodating the dynamic and stochastic nature of modern dispersed computing systems (e.g., IoT, edge, and robotic systems) where applications and compute networks have stricter and less stable resource constraints. In this dissertation, we identify problems and propose solutions that address this gap and advance the current state-of-the-art in task scheduling.
