_Note_: To obtain the list of possible scheduling policy names, use the `-listSchedPolicies` option.
To run electron with Scheduling Policy Switching Enabled, run the following command,
### Enable Scheduling Policy Switching
Use the `-switchSchedPolicy` option to enable scheduling policy switching.<br>
One needs to also provide a scheduling policy configuration file (see [schedPolConfig](./schedPolConfig.json) for reference).<br>
Use the `-schedPolConfig` option to specify the path of the scheduling policy configuration file.
```commandline
./elektron -master <host:port> -workload <workload json> -ssp -spConfig <schedPolicy config file>
./elektron -master <host:port> -workload <workload json> -switchSchedPolicy -schedPolConfig <schedPolicy config file>
```
The following options can be used when scheduling policy switching is enabled.
* `-fixFirstSchedPol` - Fix the first scheduling policy that is deployed (value=int)
* `-fixSchedWindow` - Allow the size of the scheduling window to be fixed.
* `-schedWindowSize` - Specify the size of the scheduling window (value=int). If no scheduling window size specified and `fixSchedWindow` option is enabled, the default size of 200 is used.
* `-schedPolSwitchCriteria` - Criteria to be used when deciding the next scheduling policy to switch to. Default criteria is task distribution (_taskDist_) based. However, one can either switch based on a Round Robin (_round-robin_) or Reverse Round Robin (_rev-round-robin_) order.
