Abstract--The provision of Quality of Service in Grid environments is still an open issue that needs attention from the research community. One way of contributing to the provision...
Statistical Rate Monotonic Scheduling (SRMS) is a generalization of the classical RMS results of Liu and Layland [10] for periodic tasks with highly variable execution times and s...
We study the problem of preemptive scheduling n jobs with given release times on m identical parallel machines. The objective is to minimize the average flow time. We show that wh...
