A Fluid Heuristic for Minimizing Makespan in Job Shops
We describe a simple on-line heuristic for scheduling job-shops. We assume there is a fixed set of routes for the jobs, and many jobs, say N, on each route. The heuristic uses saf...

The Power of Preemption on Unrelated Machines and Applications to Scheduling Orders
Abstract. Scheduling jobs on unrelated parallel machines so as to minimize the makespan is one of the basic, well-studied problems in the area of machine scheduling. In the first ...

A Federated Model for Scheduling in Wide-Area Systems
In this paper a model for scheduling in wide-area systems is described. The model is federated and utilizes a collection of local site schedulers that control the use of their res...
