Performance evaluation of gang scheduling in a two-cluster system with migrations
Gang scheduling is considered to be a highly effective task scheduling policy for distributed systems. In this paper we present a migration scheme which reduces the fragmentation ...

A PTAS for Minimizing the Total Weighted Completion Time on Identical Parallel Machines
We consider the problem of scheduling a set of n jobs on m identical parallel machines so as to minimize the weighted sum of job completion times. This problem is NP-hard in the s...

On Advantages of Grid Computing for Parallel Job Scheduling
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...

Decentralization and Mechanism Design for Online Machine Scheduling
We study the online version of the classical parallel machine scheduling problem to minimize the total weighted completion time from a new perspective: We assume that the data of ...

Lower Bounds for Smith's Rule in Stochastic Machine Scheduling
We consider the problem to minimize the weighted sum of completion times in nonpreemptive parallel machine scheduling. In a landmark paper from 1986, Kawaguchi and Kyan [5] showed ...
