Weighted Sum Coloring in Batch Scheduling of Conflicting Jobs
Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...

Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
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...

A simpler competitive analysis for scheduling equal-length jobs on one machine with restarts
We consider the online problem of scheduling jobs with equal processing times on a single machine. Each job has a release time and a deadline, and the goal is to maximize the numb...

Solving Engine Maintenance Capacity Problems with Simulation
For many companies the scheduling of job shops proves very difficult. Competing priorities (due dates, potential profit) from multiple customers confronts the plant manager with m...
