  text: Cloud computing aims to give users virtually unlimited pay-per-use computing
    resources without the burden of managing the underlying infrastructure. We present
    a new job execution environment Flextic that exploits scal- able static scheduling
    techniques to provide the user with a flexible pricing model, such as a tradeoff
    between dif- ferent degrees of execution speed and execution price, and at the
    same time, reduce scheduling overhead for the cloud provider. We have evaluated
    a prototype of Flextic on Amazon EC2 and compared it against Hadoop. For various
    data parallel jobs from machine learning, im- age processing, and gene sequencing
    that we considered, Flextic has low scheduling overhead and reduces job du- ration
    by up to 15% compared to Hadoop, a dynamic cloud scheduler.
