We consider energy-efficient scheduling on multiprocessors, where the speed of each processor can be individually scaled, and a processor consumes power $s^{\alpha}$ when running at speed $s$, for $\alpha>1$. A scheduling algorithm needs to…
In this paper, we consider the online problem of scheduling independent jobs \emph{non-preemptively} so as to minimize the weighted flow-time on a set of unrelated machines. There has been a considerable amount of work on this problem in…
We revisit the non-preemptive speed-scaling problem, in which a set of jobs have to be executed on a single or a set of parallel speed-scalable processor(s) between their release dates and deadlines so that the energy consumption to be…
We consider the problem of online preemptive scheduling on a single machine to minimize the total flow time. In clairvoyant scheduling, where job processing times are revealed upon arrival, the Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT)…
We discuss one of the most fundamental scheduling problem of processing jobs on a single machine to minimize the weighted flow time (weighted response time). Our main result is a $O(\log P)$-competitive algorithm, where $P$ is the…

We revisit the classical problem of minimizing the total flow time of jobs on a single machine in the online setting where jobs arrive over time. It has long been known that the Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) algorithm is optimal…
An online non-convex optimization problem is considered where the goal is to minimize the flow time (total delay) of a set of jobs by modulating the number of active servers, but with a switching cost associated with changing the number of…
We are given a set of jobs, each one specified by its release date, its deadline and its processing volume (work), and a single (or a set of) speed-scalable processor(s). We adopt the standard model in speed-scaling in which if a processor…
We study the problem of scheduling a set of jobs with release dates, deadlines and processing requirements (or works), on parallel speed-scaled processors so as to minimize the total energy consumption. We consider that both preemption and…
Online algorithms are usually analyzed using the notion of competitive ratio which compares the solution obtained by the algorithm to that obtained by an online adversary for the worst possible input sequence. Often this measure turns out…
Optimal power flow (OPF) is a central problem in the operation of electric power systems. An OPF problem optimizes a specified objective function subject to constraints imposed by both the non-linear power flow equations and engineering…
This paper considers using predictions in the context of the online Joint Replenishment Problem with Deadlines (JRP-D). Prior work includes asymptotically optimal competitive ratios of $O(1)$ for the clairvoyant setting and $O(\sqrt{n})$ of…
In this paper we provide an algorithm which given any $m$-edge $n$-vertex directed graph with integer capacities at most $U$ computes a maximum $s$-$t$ flow for any vertices $s$ and $t$ in $m^{4/3+o(1)}U^{1/3}$ time. This improves upon the…

This paper studies the online scheduling problem of minimizing total flow time for $n$ jobs on $m$ identical machines. A classical $\Omega(n)$ lower bound shows that no deterministic single-machine algorithm can beat the trivial greedy,…
As large-scale AI models expand, training becomes costlier and sustaining progress grows harder. Classical scaling laws (e.g., Kaplan et al. (2020), Hoffmann et al. (2022)) predict training loss from a static compute budget yet neglect time…
