This paper addresses nonclairvoyant and nonpreemptive online job scheduling in Grids. In the applied basic model, the Grid system consists of a large number of identical processor...

We present a new class of randomized approximation algorithms for unrelated parallel machine scheduling problems with the average weighted completion time objective. The key idea i...
We consider the problem of scheduling n jobs with release dates on m identical parallel machines to minimize the average completion time of the jobs. We prove that the ratio of the...

We consider the problem of scheduling unit-length jobs on identical parallel machines such that the makespan of the resulting schedule is minimized. Precedence constraints impose ...

This paper considers the problem of scheduling two-operation non-preemptable jobs on two identical semiautomatic machines. A single server is available to carry out the first (or ...
