the experiments.  I see the same results.  Can you confirm that it's
reasonable to be using the tools from:

https://github.com/brandenburg/sched-trace-tools

to pull the data out of the binary logs?  After the tasks ran to
completion, I simply ran:

job_stats st-simple-0.bin > cpu0 (for each st-simple-* and cpu*)

Now, grepping through the output, I see the following:
root at ubuntu-qemu:~/simple# grep "NAME=" *
cpu0:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu0:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu0:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu1:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu1:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu1:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu2:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu2:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu2:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu3:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu3:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu3:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu4:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu4:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu4:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu5:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu5:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu5:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu6:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu6:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu6:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu7:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3973 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu7:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3972 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1
cpu7:# task NAME=<unknown> PID=3974 COST=0 PERIOD=0 CPU=-1

I appreciate all of your help.

best,
JP
