Ai2 redesigns GPU cluster scheduling for higher-impact research
Ai2 describes replacing a priority-based GPU scheduler with a system built around GPU time budgets, hierarchical fair-share allocation, and a time-slicing contract. The change is intended to improve how scarce GPU capacity is assigned across research teams while keeping clusters fully occupied and reducing operational issues such as squatting and priority inflation.
