ABSTRACT:
A method for scheduling jobs in a computer system includes storing a plurality of job queue files in a random access memory, accessing at least one of the job queue files stored in random access memory, and scheduling, based in part on the at least one job queue file, execution of a job associated with the at least one job queue file. In a more particular embodiment, a method for scheduling jobs in a computer system include storing a plurality of job queue files in a random access memory. The plurality of job queue files include information associated with at least one job. The method also includes storing the information external to the random access memory and accessing at least one of the job queue files stored in the random access memory. The method also includes scheduling, based at least in part on the at least one job queue file, execution of a job associated with at least one job queue file. In response to the scheduling, the method includes updating the information stored in the job queue file and random access memory and the information stored external to the random access memory.
