In this paper, we study the problem of scheduling file transfers through a switch. This problem is at the heart of a model often used for large grid computations, where the switch represents the core of the network interconnecting the various clusters that compose the grid. We establish several complexity results, and we introduce and analyze various algorithms, from both a theoretical and a practical perspective.
