Randomized Approximation Schemes for Scheduling Unrelated Parallel Machines
We consider the problem of Scheduling n Independent Jobs on m Unrelated Parallel Machines, when the number of machines m is xed. We address the standard problem of minimizing the ...

Model reduction for a class of input-quantized systems in the max-plus algebra
Abstract— We present a systematic method for model reduction of a class of input-quantized systems in the max-plus algebra. We consider a generalization of the flow shop with ï¬...

Santa Claus Schedules Jobs on Unrelated Machines
One of the classic results in scheduling theory is the 2-approximation algorithm by Lenstra, Shmoys, and Tardos for the problem of scheduling jobs to minimize makespan on unrelate...

Approximating the Non-contiguous Multiple Organization Packing Problem
We present in this paper a 5/2-approximation algorithm for scheduling rigid jobs on multi-organizations. For a given set of n jobs, the goal is to construct a schedule for N organi...

Autonomous Scheduling
Abstract. Autonomous scheduling deals with the problem - how to enable agents to schedule a set of interdependent tasks in such a way that whatever schedule they choose for their t...
