On-line scheduling to minimize average completion time revisited
We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the average-weighted completion time on identical parallel machines when jobs are arriving over time. For both the preemptive and the nonpreemptive setting, we show that straightforward extensions of Smith’s ratio rule yield smaller competitive ratios than the previously best-known deterministic on-line algorithms. c © 2003 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملScheduling to Minimize Average Completion Time Revisited: Deterministic On-Line Algorithms
We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the average weighted completion time on identical parallel machines when jobs are arriving over time. For both the preemptive and the nonpreemptive setting, we show that straightforward extensions of Smith’s ratio rule yield smaller competitive ratios compared to the previously best-known deterministic on-line algorithms, which are (4+ ε)-competi...
متن کاملScheduling to Minimize Average Completion Time : O - line and On - line Approximation AlgorithmsDedicated to the memory of Gene
In this paper we introduce two general techniques for the design and analysis of approximation algorithms for NP-hard scheduling problems in which the objective is to minimize the weighted sum of the job completion times. For a variety of scheduling models, these techniques yield the rst algorithms that are guaranteed to nd schedules that have objective function value within a constant factor o...
متن کاملA class of on-line scheduling algorithms to minimize total completion time
We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on-line on a single machine and on identical machines with the objective to minimize total completion time. We assume that the jobs arrive over time. We give a general 2-competitive algorithm for the single machine problem. The algorithm is based on delaying the release time of the jobs, i.e., making the jobs artificially later available to the on-line...
متن کاملCustomer Order Scheduling to Minimize Total Weighted Completion Time
In this paper we study the scheduling problem in which each customer order consists of several jobs of different types, which are to be processed on m facilities. Each facility is dedicated to the processing of only one type of jobs. All jobs of an order have to be delivered to the customer at the same time. The objective is to schedule all the orders to minimize the total weighted order comple...
