Non-clairvoyant Scheduling Games
In a scheduling game, each player owns a job and chooses a machine to execute it. While the social cost is the maximal load over all machines (makespan), the cost (disutility) of ...

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...

Multi-phase Algorithms for Throughput Maximization for Real-Time Scheduling
We consider the problem of off-line throughput maximization for job scheduling on one or more machines, where each job has a release time, a deadline and a profit. Most of the ver...

On characterizations of truthful mechanisms for combinatorial auctions and scheduling
We characterize truthful mechanisms in two multi-parameter domains. The first characterization shows that every mechanism for combinatorial auctions with two subadditive bidders t...

Packing: Scheduling, Embedding, and Approximating Metrics
Abstract. Many problems in computer science are related to scheduling problems or embedding problems. Therefore it is an interesting topic to find efficient (approximation) algori...
