This paper deals with general nested loops and proposes a novel scheduling methodology for reducing the communication cost of parallel programs. General loops contain complex loop...

Abstract. In this work we study an over-constrained scheduling problem where constraints cannot be relaxed. This problem originates from a local defense agency where activities to ...

Abstract--Manufacturing scheduling is an important but difficult task. In order to effectively solve such combinatorial optimization problems, this paper presents a novel Lagrangia...
Utility functions can be used to represent the value users attach to job completion as a function of turnaround time. Most previous scheduling research used simple synthetic repre...
Predicting the running time of a parallel program is useful for determining the optimal values for the parameters of the implementation and the optimal mapping of data on processo...
