    3636One of the most popular scheduling algorithm in practice (see~\ref{existing:prod}) is work-stealing. This idea, introduce by \cite{DBLP:conf/fpca/BurtonS81}, effectively has each worker work on its local tasks first, but allows the possibility for other workers to steal local tasks if they run out of tasks. \cite{DBLP:conf/focs/Blumofe94} introduced the more familiar incarnation of this, where each workers has queue of tasks to accomplish and workers without tasks steal tasks from random workers. (The Burton and Sleep algorithm had trees of tasks and stole only among neighbours). Blumofe and Leiserson also prove worst case space and time requirements for well-structured computations.
