These models represent diverse resource requirements of application in a datacenter network, which can be represented by the coflow abstraction. The conventional method of creating hand-crafted coflow heuristics for admission or scheduling for different workloads is practically infeasible. In this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based coflow admission scheme -- LCS -- that can learn an admission policy for a higher-level performance objective, i.e., maximize successful coflow admissions, without manual feature engineering.  LCS is trained on a production trace, which has online coflow arrivals. The evaluation results show that LCS is able to learn a reasonable admission policy that admits more coflows than state-of-the-art Varys heuristic while meeting their deadlines."}],"doi":"10.1109/INFOCOMWKSHPS51825.2021.9484599","keyword":["Coflow scheduling","Reinforcement learning","Deadlines"],"type":"conference","date_created":"2021-01-16T18:24:19Z","publication":"IEEE INFOCOM 2021 - IEEE Conference on Computer Communications Workshops (INFOCOM WKSHPS)","status":"public","author":[{"first_name":"Asif","id":"63288","full_name":"Hasnain, Asif","last_name":"Hasnain"},{"id":"126","first_name":"Holger","full_name":"Karl, Holger","last_name":"Karl"}],"conference":{"end_date":"2021-05-13","name":"IEEE INFOCOM 2021 - IEEE Conference on Computer Communications","location":"Vancouver BC Canada","start_date":"2021-05-10"},"year":"2021","_id":"21005"}
