Java Job Scheduling Software

I am working on a project, in which I need to schedule jobs on a different machines.

I am wondering if somebody could provide me links for algorithms for doing this efficiently.

I have already used google to search for Job Scheduling software without any success.

Any responses/pointers would be appreciated.

Different machines? I don't think you can or should. Sounds like a security breach to me.You can use Quartz to schedule them on your own machine.%

Google found nothing? It gave me these: http://www.google.com/search?q=Java+job+scheduling+software&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:officialYou're not trying hard enough.%

Well yes I reviewed the results that google came up with before I posted the message. I could not find anything that did what I am looking to do.

The problem I need to solve relates to test lab scheduling. You want to schedule multiple tests on machines and make sure that you schedule them efficiently.

It does not involve scheduling jobs on different computers.

You may not be stating your problem concisely enough...Wouldn't it be most effecient to start the next job once the current job has completed? Better yet, if you have a multiproc machine, schedule them to run concurrently if they're not performance sensitive.
