Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Minimizing Average Flow-Time
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...
