Better bounds for online load balancing on unrelated machines
We study the problem of scheduling permanent jobs on unrelated machines when the objective is to minimize the Lp norm of the machine loads. The problem is known as load balancing ...

Grouping Techniques for Scheduling Problems: Simpler and Faster
In this paper we describe a general grouping technique to devise faster and simpler approximation schemes for several scheduling problems. We illustrate the technique on two diff...

Machine scheduling with resource dependent processing times
We consider machine scheduling on unrelated parallel machines with the objective to minimize the schedule makespan. We assume that, in addition to its machine dependence, the proce...

Convergence Time to Nash Equilibria
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...

Improved Approximations for Multiprocessor Scheduling Under Uncertainty
This paper presents improved approximation algorithms for the problem of multiprocessor scheduling under uncertainty (SUU), in which the execution of each job may fail probabilist...
