Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
We consider wireless multihop data networks with random multi-access mechanisms at the MAC layer. In general, our aim is to study the performance as perceived by users in a dynamic...
This paper presents a hybrid technique that combines List Scheduling (LS) with Genetic Algorithms (GA) for constructing non-preemptive schedules for soft real-time parallel applic...
Optimizing combinations of placements of parts, known as markers, is an important preparatory step in order-based industrial production of clothes. Given a work order in the form ...
The fastest known algorithms for factoring large numbers share a core sieving technique. The sieving cores find numbers that are completely factored over a prime base set raised t...
