The Constrained Minimum Weighted Sum of Job Completion Times Problem
We consider the problem of minimizing the weighted sum of job completion times on a single machine (subject to certain job weights) with an additional side constraint on the weigh...

An FPTAS for the Minimum Total Weighted Tardiness Problem with a Fixed Number of Distinct Due Dates
Given a sequencing of jobs on a single machine, each one with a weight, processing time, and a due date, the tardiness of a job is the time needed for its completion beyond its du...

On the Approximability of Average Completion Time Scheduling under Precedence Constraints
Abstract. We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the average weighted job completion time on a single machine under precedence constraints. We show that this problem with...

Learning to Identify Global Bottlenecks in Constraint Satisfaction Search
Using information from failures to guide subsequent search is an important technique for solving combinatorial problems in domains such as boolean satisfiability (SAT) and constr...

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 ...
