In the context of scheduling, we study social cost efficiency for a cost-sharing problem in which the service provider's cost is determined by the makespan of the served agen...
This paper studies parallel job scheduling in a distributed system. A simulation model is used to address performance issues associated with scheduling. Five policies are used to ...
