Scheduling query execution plans is an important component of query optimization in parallel database systems. The problem is particularly complex in a shared-nothing execution en...
We design an algorithm, called the fluid synchronization algorithm (FSA), for the job shop scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the makespan. We round an optimal sol...
In this report we address the problem of static scheduling of realtime systems that include both hard and soft tasks. We consider systems in which both hard and soft tasks are per...
Today, large scale parallel systems are available at relatively low cost. Many powerful such systems have been installed all over the world and the number of users is always incre...
Divisible Load Theory (DLT) is an established mathematical framework to study Divisible Load Scheduling (DLS). However, traditional DLT does not comprehensively deal with the sche...
