Time-constrained project scheduling with adjacent resources
We develop a decomposition method for the Time-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (TCPSP) with Adjacent Resources. For adjacent resources the resource units are ordered and th...

New solution methods for single machine bicriteria scheduling problem: Minimization of average flowtime and number of tardy jobs
We consider the bicriteria scheduling problem of minimizing the number of tardy jobs and average flowtime on a single machine. This problem, which is known to be NP-hard, is impor...

On the importance of bandwidth control mechanisms for scheduling on large scale heterogeneous platforms
We study three scheduling problems (file redistribution, independent tasks scheduling and broadcasting) on large scale heterogeneous platforms under the Bounded Multi-port Model. I...

Review of properties of different precedence graphs for scheduling problems
Precedence constraints are a part of a definition of any scheduling problem. After recalling, in precise graph-theoretical terms, the relations between task-on-arc and task-on-nod...

A note on the precedence-constrained class sequencing problem
We give a short proof of a result of Tovey [6] on the inapproximability of a scheduling problem known as precedence constrained class sequencing. In addition, we present an approxi...

Feasible Schedules for Rotating Transmissions
Motivated by a scheduling problem that arises in the study of optical networks we prove the following result, which is a variation of a conjecture of Haxell, Wilfong and Winkler. ...
