Parallel Machine Scheduling Problems with Controllable Processing Times
We consider the problem of scheduling n independent jobs on m identical machines that operate in parallel. Each job has a controllable processing time. The fact that the jobs have...

Approximability and Nonapproximability Results for Minimizing Total Flow Time on a Single Machine
We consider the problem of scheduling n jobs that are released over time on a single machine in order to minimize the total ow time. This problem is well-known to be NPcomplete, a...

On the Approximability of Average Completion Time Scheduling under Precedence Constraints
Abstract. We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the average weighted job completion time on a single machine under precedence constraints. We show that this problem with...

Relative Loss Bounds and Polynomial-Time Predictions for the k-lms-net Algorithm
We consider a two-layer network algorithm. The first layer consists of an uncountable number of linear units. Each linear unit is an LMS algorithm whose inputs are first “kerne...

On the advantage over a random assignment
: We initiate the study of a new measure of approximation. This measure compares the performance of an approximation algorithm to the random assignment algorithm. This is a useful ...
