Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Optimal bundle pricing with monotonicity constraint
We consider the problem to sell items to a set of bidders. Bidders bid on bundles of items, and each item's availability is unbounded, like for digital goods. We need to dete...

An Efficient Algorithm for a Sharp Approximation of Universally Quantified Inequalities
This paper introduces a new algorithm for solving a subclass of quantified constraint satisfaction problems (QCSP) where existential quantifiers precede universally quantified ine...

Optimal Multi-Agent Scheduling with Constraint Programming
We consider the problem of computing optimal schedules in multi-agent systems. In these problems, actions of one agent can influence the actions of other agents, while the object...

Statistical Rate Monotonic Scheduling
Statistical Rate Monotonic Scheduling (SRMS) is a generalization of the classical RMS results of Liu and Layland [10] for periodic tasks with highly variable execution times and s...
