    The package can simply be installed from pypi
    
    $ pip install simple_gpu_scheduler

When I run this, I get:

    ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement simple_gpu_scheduler (from versions: none)
    ERROR: No matching distribution found for simple_gpu_scheduler

on Ubuntu 16.04. Admittedly I don't know much about Python or pypi so perhaps the issue is on my end. Nonetheless, I'm not 100% sure how to resolve this.

Sorry thats my bad. The package is written in python 3. Thus it is also possible that you have to install the package using `pip3 install simple-gpu-scheduler`. If the command pip3 does not exist try installing python3 using the ubuntu package manager apt.

    $ python3 -m pip3 install --user simple_gpu_scheduler
    /usr/bin/python3: No module named pip3
    $ python3 -m pip install --user simple_gpu_scheduler
    ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement simple_gpu_scheduler (from versions: none)
    ERROR: No matching distribution found for simple_gpu_scheduler
    $ python3 --version
    Python 3.5.2
    $ python3 -m pip --version
    pip 19.3 from /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pip (python 3.5)

If it requires Python 3.6, then it's not compatible with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS out of the box which uses 3.5

Could you add an issue to the GitHub project? Shouldn't be a problem to add support for 3.5 and I'll take care of it soon.

Try with hyphens instead of underscores? https://pypi.org/project/simple-gpu-scheduler/ has it both ways which is very confusing.

The README is incorrect, the PyPi package name uses hyphens.

Actually both should work. The problem in this case is probably that the package requires python3.6 and thus cannot be found using a python 2 pip. I changed the README for consistency though.
