Approximation in Preemptive Stochastic Online Scheduling
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...

Sleep with Guilt and Work Faster to Minimize Flow Plus Energy
In this paper we extend the study of flow-energy scheduling to a model that allows both sleep management and speed scaling. Our main result is a sleep management algorithm called I...

Semi-matchings for bipartite graphs and load balancing
We consider the problem of fairly matching the left-hand vertices of a bipartite graph to the right-hand vertices. We refer to this problem as the optimal semimatching problem; it...

Task Merging for Dynamic Power Management of Cyclic Applications in Real-Time Multi-Processor Systems
—In this paper we propose the method of task merging and idle period clustering for dynamic power management (DPM) in a real-time system with multiple processing elements. We sho...

Speed Scaling Functions for Flow Time Scheduling Based on Active Job Count
Abstract. We study online scheduling to minimize flow time plus energy usage in the dynamic speed scaling model. We devise new speed scaling functions that depend on the number of ...
