Time-Indexed Formulations for Machine Scheduling Problems: Column Generation
Time-indexed formulations for machine scheduling problems have received a great deal of attention; not only do the linear programming relaxations provide strong lower bounds, but ...

Minimizing total busy time in parallel scheduling with application to optical networks
—We consider a scheduling problem in which a bounded number of jobs can be processed simultaneously by a single machine. The input is a set of n jobs J = {J1, . . . , Jn}. Each j...

Online Scheduling on Identical Machines using SRPT
Due to its optimality on a single machine for the problem of minimizing average flow time, ShortestRemaining-Processing-Time (SRPT) appears to be the most natural algorithm to con...
