Abstract. Scheduling jobs on unrelated parallel machines so as to minimize the makespan is one of the basic, well-studied problems in the area of machine scheduling. In the first ...
Abstract. Classical list scheduling is a very popular and efficient technique for scheduling jobs in parallel platforms. However, with the increasing number of processors, the cost...

The distributed nature of the grid results in the problem of scheduling parallel jobs produced by several independent organizations that have partial control over the system. We co...
We characterize truthful mechanisms in two multi-parameter domains. The first characterization shows that every mechanism for combinatorial auctions with two subadditive bidders t...
Abstract. We consider the train delivery problem which is a generalization of the bin packing problem and is equivalent to a one dimensional version of the vehicle routing problem ...
