| Abstract |

Proposes a novel methodology to develop new parallel loop scheduling algorithms. First, existing algorithms are parameterized into a general framework. Then, a genetic algorithm is used with a shared-memory multiprocessor simulator to "evolve" better strategies. Two new algorithms (called CS-2 and FS-alt, due to their similarity to chunk scheduling and factoring, respectively) are found that perform well compared to existing algorithms.
