چکیده

The problem of multiprocessor scheduling can be stated as scheduling a general task graph on a multiprocessor system such that a set of performance criteria will be optimized. This study investigates the use of near optimal scheduling strategies in multiprocessor scheduling problem. The multiprocessor scheduling problem is modeled and simulated using five different simulated annealing algorithms and a genetic algorithm. In this paper, the comparison of the simulation results of the simulated annealing algorithm, the modified versions of simulated annealing algorithms, and the genetic algorithm is presented. In addition, results of sensitivity analysis on the simulated annealing algorithm, the modified simulated annealing algorithms, and the genetic algorithm are included.  1999 AAAI.

Improved Particle Swarm Optimization for Solving Multiprocessor Scheduling Problem: Enhancements and Hybrid Methods

Memetic algorithms (MAs) are hybrid evolutionary algorithms (EAs) that combine global and local search by using an EA to perform exploration while the local search method performs exploitation. Combining global and local search is a strategy used by many successful global optimization approaches, and MAs have in fact been recognized as a powerful algorithmic paradigm for evolutionary computing....
