In parallel and distributed processing, tasks are ordinarily clustered and assigned to different processors or machines before they are scheduled. The assignment of tasks to proc...
Non-uniform utilization of functional units in combination with hardware mechanisms such as clock gating leads to different power consumptions in different parts of a processor ch...
The Unit Commitment Problem (UCP) is the task of finding an optimal turn on and turn off schedule for a group of power generation units over a given time horizon to minimize ope...
We study the problem of scheduling unit time tasks of two types on m parallel identical machines. For each type, given numbers of tasks are required to be completed by the specifi...
The Pfair algorithms are optimal for independent periodic real-time tasks executing on a multiple-resource system, however, they incur a high scheduling overhead by making schedul...
