Traffic engineering aims to optimize the utilization of existing network resources for load balance and failure recovery, and these are to be accomplished in a scalable fashion. Th...
When the processing times of jobs are controllable, selected processing times affect both the manufacturing cost and the scheduling performance.A well-known example for such a cas...
