Order Scheduling Models: Hardness and Algorithms
We consider scheduling problems in which a job consists of components of different types to be processed on m machines. Each machine is capable of processing components of a singl...

Combinatorial Algorithms for Data Migration to Minimize Average Completion Time
The data migration problem is to compute an efficient plan for moving data stored on devices in a network from one configuration to another. It is modeled by a transfer graph, wher...

A PTAS for Minimizing the Total Weighted Completion Time on Identical Parallel Machines
We consider the problem of scheduling a set of n jobs on m identical parallel machines so as to minimize the weighted sum of job completion times. This problem is NP-hard in the s...

Weighted Sum Coloring in Batch Scheduling of Conflicting Jobs
Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...
