Abstract. Given a set J of jobs, where each job j is associated with release date rj, deadline dj and processing time pj, our goal is to schedule all jobs using the minimum possibl...
This paper addresses the potential benefit of sharing jobs between independent sites in a grid computing environment. Also the aspect of parallel multi-site job execution on diff...
Abstract. We study online scheduling to minimize flow time plus energy usage in the dynamic speed scaling model. We devise new speed scaling functions that depend on the number of ...
