OPTIMIZING JOB RUNTIMES VIA PREDICTION-BASED TOKEN ALLOCATION

Abstract:

Solutions for optimizing job runtimes via prediction-based token allocation includes receiving training data comprising historical run data, the historical run data comprising job characteristics, runtime results, and a token count for each of a plurality of prior jobs, and the job characteristics comprising an intermediate representation and job graph data; based at least on the training data, training a token estimator, the token estimator comprising a machine learning (ML) model; receiving job characteristics for a user-submitted job; based at least on the received job characteristics, generating, with the token estimator, token prediction data for the user-submitted job; selecting a token count for the user-submitted job, based at least on the token prediction data; identifying the selected token count to an execution environment; and executing, with the execution environment, the user-submitted job in accordance with the selected token count.
