review of fairness safeguards in risk coded schedulers

Research on multi-tenant inference scheduling suggests fairness safeguards can preserve essential throughput while preventing persistent starvation in lower-priority queues (SIGCOMM).

evidence stack

• Fairness floors reduce tail-latency inequity.
• Misweighted priorities still produce hidden starvation.
• Adaptive safeguards outperform static allocations.

method boundary

Fairness outcomes depend on realistic tenant-mix simulation and burst patterns.

my take

Fairness safeguards are now an operational requirement, not a policy add-on.
