score: Add clustered/partitioned scheduling
Clustered/partitioned scheduling helps to control the worst-case latencies in the system. The goal is to reduce the amount of shared state in the system and thus prevention of lock contention. Modern multi-processor systems tend to have several layers of data and instruction caches. With clustered/partitioned scheduling it is possible to honour the cache topology of a system and thus avoid expensive cache synchronization traffic. We have clustered scheduling in case the set of processors of a system is partitioned into non-empty pairwise-disjoint subsets. These subsets are called clusters. Clusters with a cardinality of one are partitions. Each cluster is owned by exactly one scheduler instance.
