We devise the first constant-approximate feasibility test for sporadic multiprocessor real-time scheduling. We give an algorithm that, given a task system and > 0, correctly de...

With the rapid development of Internet multimedia applications, the next generation of networks is required to schedule not only the best effort traffic but also the traffic wit...
In [2] it was shown that the obvious semi-clairvoyant generalization of the Shortest Processing Time is O(1)-competitive with respect to average stretch on a single machine. In [2...

—In this paper, we present three algorithms that provide performance guarantees for scheduling switches, such as optical switches, with configuration overhead. Each algorithm emu...
Scheduling in an environment with constraints of many different types is known to be a hard problem. We tackle this problem for an integrated steel plant in Ghent, Belgium, using ...
