It is simple to increase a job's priority based upon how long it has been waiting, see:

You would need to use a cron script to change these factors depending upon the time of day, or change the code.
Quoting Alejandro Sanchez <[email protected]>:
Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to configure PENDING jobs modifications dynamically depending on the hour. Specifically, I would like to increase/decrease PENDING jobs priority depending on the hour. Obviously this can be accomplished with a cron but I don't know if it can be configured within SLURM. Thanks so much, Alejandro
