We present in this article a new approximation algorithm for scheduling a set of n independent rigid (meaning requiring a fixed number of processors) jobs on hierarchical parallel ...
Scheduling of multiple parallel machinesin the face of sequence dependent setups and downstream considerations is a hard problem. No single efficient algorithm is guaranteedto pro...
— In this paper we study the problem of jointly performing scheduling and congestion control in mobile adhoc networks so that network queues remain bounded and the resulting flo...

We consider the problem of minimizing average flow time on multiple machines when each job can be assigned only to a specified subset of the machines. This is a special case of sc...
