Network of workstation (NOW) is a cost-effective alternative to massively parallel supercomputers. As commercially available off-the-shelf processors become cheaper and faster, ...
We consider preemptive offline and online scheduling on identical machines and uniformly related machines in the hierarchical model, with the goal of minimizing the makespan. In t...
Abstract— This paper presents scheduling strategies for sensing workload in wireless sensor networks using Divisible Load Theory (DLT), which offers a tractable model and realist...
Concurrent engineering has been widely used in managing design projects to speed up the design process by concurrently performing multiple tasks. Since the progress of a design tas...
