An Improved Randomized Truthful Mechanism for Scheduling Unrelated Machines
We study the scheduling problem on unrelated machines in the mechanism design setting. This problem was proposed and studied in the seminal paper of Nisan and

Mechanism Design for Fractional Scheduling on Unrelated Machines
In this paper, we consider the mechanism design version of the fractional variant of the scheduling problem on unrelated machines. We give a lower bound of 2 − 1/n for any fracti...

Distributed Algorithmic Mechanism Design for Scheduling on Unrelated Machines
In classical mechanism design setting the outcome of the mechanism is computed by a trusted central party. In this paper we consider distributed implementations in which the outco...

Mechanism design for online real-time scheduling
For the problem of online real-time scheduling of jobs on a single processor, previous work presents matching upper and lower bounds on the competitive ratio that can be achieved ...

Multi-Period Combinatorial Auction Mechanism for Distributed Resource Allocation and Scheduling
We consider the problem of resource allocation and scheduling where information and decisions are decentralized, and our goal is to propose a market mechanism that allows resource...
