This paper uses trace-driven simulations to evaluate two novel Web server scheduling policies called KSRPT and T-SRPT. K-SRPT is a multi-threaded version of SRPT (Shortest Remaini...
An Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is proposed to approach the Hybrid Flow Shop with Sequence Dependent Setup Times and Uniform Machines in parallel (HFSSDST-UM) proble...
— IEEE 802.11 WLAN has been widely accepted throughout the world. However, it has large overhead due to idle backoff slots and frequent collisions depending on the number of node...
A set of jobs need to be served by a single server which can serve only one job at a time. Jobs have processing times and incur waiting costs (linear in their waiting time). The j...
Offline scheduling is attractive when the traffic profile is known a priori since the complexity of online scheduling is largely removed. Given any admissible rate matrix = (ij),...
