We analyze scheduling multilayer divisible computations. Multilayer computations consist of a chain of parallel applications, such that one application produces input for the next one. A simple form of multilayer computations are MapReduce parallel applications. The operations of mapping and reducing are two divisible applications with precedence constraints. We propose a divisible load model and give an algorithm for scheduling multilayer divisible computations. The algorithm is tested in a series of computational experiments. We draw conclusions on schedule patterns and determinants of the performance.
