11  * The NQ algorithm adopts a two-speed model. When there is an idle server
12  * available, the job will be sent to the idle server, instead of waiting
13  * for a fast one. When there is no idle server available, the job will be
14  * sent to the server that minimize its expected delay (The Shortest
15  * Expected Delay scheduling algorithm).
16  *
17  * See the following paper for more information:
18  * A. Weinrib and S. Shenker, Greed is not enough: Adaptive load sharing
19  * in large heterogeneous systems. In Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM'88,
20  * pages 986-994, 1988.
21  *
22  * Thanks must go to Marko Buuri <marko@buuri.name> for talking NQ to me.
23  *
24  * The difference between NQ and SED is that NQ can improve overall
25  * system utilization.
