Approximation Algorithms for Scheduling Parallel Jobs
Abstract. In this paper we study variants of the non-preemptive parallel job scheduling problem where the number of machines is polynomially bounded in the number of jobs. For this...

A Fast 5/2-Approximation Algorithm for Hierarchical Scheduling
We present in this article a new approximation algorithm for scheduling a set of n independent rigid (meaning requiring a fixed number of processors) jobs on hierarchical parallel ...

Preemptive Scheduling with Rejection
We consider the problem of preemptively scheduling a set of n jobs on m (identical, uniformly related, or unrelated) parallel machines. The scheduler may reject a subset of the job...

Stochastic Online Scheduling on Parallel Machines
We consider a non-preemptive, stochastic parallel machine scheduling model with the goal to minimize the weighted completion times of jobs. In contrast to the classical stochastic ...

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...
