We consider the problem of dynamically scheduling J jobs on N processors for non-preemptive execution where the value of each job (or the reward garnered upon completion) decays over time. All jobs are initially available in a buffer and…
We investigate the scheduling of $n$ jobs divided into $c$ classes on $m$ identical parallel machines. For every class there is a setup time which is required whenever a machine switches from the processing of one class to another class.…
Scheduling jobs with precedence constraints on a set of identical machines to minimize the total processing time (makespan) is a fundamental problem in combinatorial optimization. In practical settings such as cloud computing, jobs are…
Scheduling a set of jobs over a collection of machines is a fundamental problem that needs to be solved millions of times a day in various computing platforms: in operating systems, in large data clusters, and in data centers. Along with…
Consider the problem in which n jobs that are classified into k types are to be scheduled on m identical machines without preemption. A machine requires a proper setup taking s time units before processing jobs of a given type. The…
Parallel machine scheduling has been extensively studied in the past decades, with applications ranging from production planning to job processing in large computing clusters. In this work we study some of these fundamental optimization…
We consider the classic problem of scheduling jobs with precedence constraints on a set of identical machines to minimize the makespan objective function. Understanding the exact approximability of the problem when the number of machines is…
In this paper, we study the following batch scheduling model: find a schedule that minimizes total flow time for $n$ uniform length jobs, with release times and deadlines, where the machine is only actively processing jobs in at most $k$…
This paper studies the bicriteria problem of scheduling $n$ jobs on a serial-batch machine to minimize makespan and maximum cost simultaneously. A serial-batch machine can process up to $b$ jobs as a batch, where $b$ is known as the batch…
We consider the following scheduling problem. There is a single machine and the jobs will arrive for completion online. Each job j is preemptive and, upon its arrival, its other characteristics are immediately revealed to the machine: the…
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 consider the problem of online allocation (matching, budgeted allocations, and assortments) of reusable resources where an adversarial sequence of resource requests is revealed over time and any allocated resource is used/rented for a…
A queue is required when a service provider is not able to handle jobs arriving over the time. In a highly flexible and dynamic environment, some jobs might demand for faster execution at run-time especially when the resources are limited…
We study a fundamental online scheduling problem where jobs with processing times, weights, and deadlines arrive online over time at their release dates. The task is to preemptively schedule these jobs on a single or multiple (possibly…
We study fair mechanisms for the classic job scheduling problem on unrelated machines with the objective of minimizing the makespan. This problem is equivalent to minimizing the egalitarian social cost in the fair division of chores. The…
Deep neural networks training jobs and other iterative computations frequently include checkpoints where jobs can be canceled based on the current value of monitored metrics. While most of existing results focus on the performance of all…
We consider the coflow scheduling problem in the non-clairvoyant setting, assuming that flow sizes are realized on-line according to given probability distributions. The goal is to minimize the weighted average completion time of coflows in…
We consider the scheduling problem on $n$ strategic unrelated machines when no payments are allowed, under the objective of minimizing the makespan. We adopt the model introduced in [Koutsoupias, Theory Comput. Syst. (2014)] where a machine…
We analyze a data-processing system with $n$ clients producing jobs which are processed in \textit{batches} by $m$ parallel servers; the system throughput critically depends on the batch size and a corresponding sub-additive speedup…
We consider a scheduling problem of strategic agents representing jobs of different weights. Each agent has to decide on one of a finite set of identical machines to get their job processed. In contrast to the common and exclusive focus on…
