# Scheduling
Scheduling is a core function of Nomad. It is the process of assigning tasks
from jobs to client machines. The design is heavily inspired by Google's work on
both [Omega: flexible, scalable schedulers for large compute clusters][Omega] and
[Large-scale cluster management at Google with Borg][Borg]. See the links below
for implementation details on scheduling in Nomad.
- [Scheduling Internals](/docs/internals/scheduling/scheduling.html) - An overview of how the scheduler works.
- [Preemption](/docs/internals/scheduling/preemption.html) - Details of preemption, an advanced scheduler feature introduced in Nomad 0.9.
