Scheduling to minimize power consumption using submodular functions
We develop logarithmic approximation algorithms for extremely general formulations of multiprocessor multiinterval offline task scheduling to minimize power usage. Here each proce...

Preemptive Scheduling on Selfish Machines
We consider the problem of scheduling on parallel uniformly related machines, where preemptions are allowed and the machines are controlled by selfish agents. Our goal is to minimi...

Finishing flows quickly with preemptive scheduling
Today’s data centers face extreme challenges in providing low latency. However, fair sharing, a principle commonly adopted in current congestion control protocols, is far from o...

The Power of Preemption on Unrelated Machines and Applications to Scheduling Orders
Abstract. Scheduling jobs on unrelated parallel machines so as to minimize the makespan is one of the basic, well-studied problems in the area of machine scheduling. In the first ...
