Our research is focussed on keeping both local and parallel
jobs together in a time-sharing NOW and efficiently scheduling them by
means of coscheduling mechanisms. In such systems, the proper length of
the time slice still remains an open question. In this paper, an algorithm
is presented to adjust the length of the quantum dynamically to the
necessity of the distributed tasks while keeping good response time for
interactive processes. It is implemented and evaluated in a Linux cluster.
