We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Abstract. In this paper we investigate methods for analyzing the expected value of adding information in distributed task scheduling problems. As scheduling problems are NP-complet...
Today's business climate for manufacturers requires low inventory, quick response systems that turn out a wide variety of products. Since many companies are reaching physical...
—This paper formally establishes that random access scheduling schemes, and, more specifically CSMA-CA, yields exceptionally good performance in the context of wireless multihop...
It is important to identify scalability constraints in existing job scheduling software as they are applied to next generation parallel systems. In this paper, we analyze the scala...
