Optimal online-list batch scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the online-list batch scheduling problem. Jobs arrive one by one and have to be assigned upon arrival to a scheduled batch such that the makespan is minimized. Each batch can accommodate up to B jobs. We give a complete classification of the tractability of this online problem.

Online Scheduling & Project Scheduling
This thesis presents new and improved scheduling algorithms for a number of scheduling problems. The first part of the thesis deals with two online-list scheduling problems, both with the objective to minimize the makespan. In these problems, the jobs arrive one by one and the decision maker has to irrevocably schedule the arriving job before the next job becomes known. In the second part, a ne...
متن کاملOn-line machine scheduling with batch setups
We study a class of scheduling problems with batch setups for the online-list and online-time paradigms. Jobs are to be scheduled in batches for processing. All jobs in a batch start and complete together, and a constant setup is prior to each batch. The objective is to minimize the total completion time of all jobs. We primarily consider the special cases of these problems with identical proce...
متن کاملOptimal Semi-Online Algorithm for Scheduling on Two Parallel Batch Processing Machines
This paper deals with semi-online scheduling on two parallel batch processing machines with jobs’ nondecreasing processing times. Our objective is to minimize the makespan. A batch processing machine can handle up to B jobs simultaneously. We study unbounded model which means that B is sufficiently large. The jobs that are processed together construct a batch, and all jobs in a batch start and ...
متن کاملOptimal Semi-online Algorithm for Scheduling on a Batch Processing Machine
We consider two semi-online scheduling problems on a single batch (processing) machine with jobs’ nondecreasing processing times and jobs’ nonincreasing processing times, respectively. Our objective is to minimize the makespan. A batch processing machine can handle up to B jobs simultaneously. We study an unbounded model where B = ∞. The jobs that are processed together construct a batch, and a...
متن کاملApproximating the optimal competitive ratio for an ancient online scheduling problem
We consider the classical online scheduling problem P ||Cmax in which jobs are released over list and provide a nearly optimal online algorithm. More precisely, an online algorithm whose competitive ratio is at most (1+ ) times that of an optimal online algorithm could be achieved in polynomial time, where m, the number of machines, is a part of the input. It substantially improves upon the pre...
