Job Shop Scheduling with Unit Length Tasks: Bounds and Algorithms
We consider the job shop scheduling problem unit−Jm, where each job is processed once on each of m given machines. Every job consists of a permutation of tasks for all machines....

From fluid relaxations to practical algorithms for job shop scheduling: the makespan objective
We design an algorithm, called the fluid synchronization algorithm (FSA), for the job shop scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the makespan. We round an optimal sol...

Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Time-Shift Scheduling: Fair Scheduling of Flows in High Speed Networks
Abstract-- We present a scheduling protocol, called TimeShift Scheduling, to forward packets from multiple input flows to a single output channel. Each input flow is guaranteed a p...
