Randomized Approximation Schemes for Scheduling Unrelated Parallel Machines
We consider the problem of Scheduling n Independent Jobs on m Unrelated Parallel Machines, when the number of machines m is xed. We address the standard problem of minimizing the ...

A Comparison of Dag-Scheduling Strategies for Internet-Based Computing
A fundamental challenge in Internet computing (IC) is to efficiently schedule computations having complex interjob dependencies, given the unpredictability of remote machines, in...

Modeling User Runtime Estimates
User estimates of job runtimes have emerged as an important component of the workload on parallel machines, and can have a significant impact on how a scheduler treats different ...

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...

Proportionate flexible flow shop scheduling via a hybrid constructive genetic algorithm
The proportionate flow shop (PFS) is considered as a unique case of the flow shop problem in which the processing times of the operations belonging to the same job are equal. A pr...
