Workflows are modeled as hierarchically structured directed acyclic graphs in which vertices represent computational tasks, referred to as requests, and edges represent precedent c...

The Flexible Job Shop scheduling Problem (FJSP) is a generalization of the classical Job Shop Problem in which each operation must be processed on a given machine chosen among a f...
We consider the problem of scheduling on-line a sequence of degradable intervals in a set of k identical machines. Our objective is to find a schedule that maximizes simultaneousl...

We study the number of steps required to reach a pure Nash Equilibrium in a load balancing scenario where each job behaves selfishly and attempts to migrate to a machine which will...

It is well known that the Earliest-Deadline-First (EDF) and the Least-Laxity-First (LLF) algorithms are optimal algorithms for the problem of preemptively scheduling jobs that arr...
