We consider the classical scheduling problem on a single machine, on which we need to schedule sequentially $n$ given jobs. Every job $j$ has a processing time $p_j$ and a priority weight $w_j$, and for a given schedule a completion time…
A speed scaling problem is considered, where time is divided into slots, and jobs with payoff $v$ arrive at the beginning of the slot with associated deadlines $d$. Each job takes one slot to be processed, and multiple jobs can be processed…
Most practical scheduling applications involve some uncertainty about the arriving times and lengths of the jobs. Stochastic online scheduling is a well-established model capturing this. Here the arrivals occur online, while the processing…
We investigate deterministic non-preemptive online scheduling with delayed commitment for total completion time minimization on parallel identical machines. In this problem, jobs arrive one-by-one and their processing times are revealed…
When a computer system schedules jobs there is typically a significant cost associated with preempting a job during execution. This cost can be from the expensive task of saving the memory's state and loading data into and out of memory. It…

The problem of online scheduling of multi-server jobs is considered, where there are a total of $K$ servers, and each job requires concurrent service from multiple servers for it to be processed. Each job on its arrival reveals its…
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…
