On Using Monte Carlo Methods for Scheduling
Monte Carlo techniques have long been used (since Buffon's experiment to approximate the value of by tossing a needle onto striped paper) to analyze phenomena which, due to ...

Approximation Bounds for a General Class of Precedence Constrained Parallel Machine Scheduling Problems
Abstract. A well studied and difficult class of scheduling problems concerns parallel machines and precedence constraints. In order to model more realistic situations, we consider ...

Preemptive scheduling on a small number of hierarchical machines
We consider preemptive offline and online scheduling on identical machines and uniformly related machines in the hierarchical model, with the goal of minimizing the makespan. In t...

Coverage and adaptive scheduling algorithms for criticality management on video wireless sensor networks
In WSN-based surveillance systems power conservation is an important issue but one must also ensure that the application's objectives are met. In this paper, we jointly addres...
