We consider the problem of scheduling n jobs on m identical parallel machines to minimize a regular cost function. The standard list scheduling algorithm converts a list into a feasible schedule by focusing on the job start times. We prove that list ...
In this paper, we extend Liu and Layland’s utilization bound for fixed priority scheduling on uniprocessors to homogeneous multiprocessor systems under a partitioning strategy. Assuming that tasks are pre-emptively scheduled on each processor according ...
In flow shop scheduling there are m machines and n jobs, such that every job has to be processed on the machines in the fixed order 1,...,m. In the permutation flow shop problem, it is also required that each machine process the set of all jobs in the ...
