Abstract. As multi-core processors proliferate, it has become more important than ever to ensure efficient execution of parallel jobs on multiprocessor systems. In this paper, we s...
We propose a general dual-fitting technique for analyzing online scheduling algorithms in the unrelated machines setting where the objective function involves weighted flow-time...
We consider the problem of scheduling dynamically arriving jobs in a non-clairvoyant setting, that is, when the size of a job in remains unknown until the job finishes execution. ...
Due to its optimality on a single machine for the problem of minimizing average flow time, ShortestRemaining-Processing-Time (SRPT) appears to be the most natural algorithm to con...
