Iterative Relaxations for Iterative Flattening in Cumulative Scheduling
Cumulative scheduling is a generalization of jobshop scheduling, where machines have discrete capacities and activities may require several capacity units. This paper considers it...

Convex programming for scheduling unrelated parallel machines
We consider the classical problem of scheduling parallel unrelated machines. Each job is to be processed by exactly one machine. Processing job j on machine i requires time pij . ...

Relaxing the problem-size bound for out-of-core columnsort
Previous implementations of out-of-core columnsort limit the problem size to N ≤ (M/P)3/2, where N is the number of records to sort, P is the number of processors, and M is the ...

Stochastic Online Scheduling on Parallel Machines
We consider a non-preemptive, stochastic parallel machine scheduling model with the goal to minimize the weighted completion times of jobs. In contrast to the classical stochastic ...

Randomized Approximation Schemes for Scheduling Unrelated Parallel Machines
We consider the problem of Scheduling n Independent Jobs on m Unrelated Parallel Machines, when the number of machines m is xed. We address the standard problem of minimizing the ...
