چکیده

1 Background In the previous lecture we saw a PTAS for the problem PkM 2 i. Recall that M i is the completion time of machine i. In this lecture we present a PTAS for the problem Pk P c j w j , due to Skutella and Woeginger (1999). Some known results for related problems: 1k P w j c j-can be solved in polynomial time using Smith's Ratio Rule. Pk P c j-can be solved in polynomial time using SPT Rule. Pmk P w j c j-is weakly NP-hard and has a FPTAS 1] Rk P c j-can be solved in polynomial time. 4], 5] Rk P w j c j-does not have a PTAS unless P=NP. Pjr j j P w j c j-has a PTAS which is also applicable for Rmjr j j P w j c j. Qjr j j P w j c j-this problem is still open.

236605 Advanced Topics Spring Semester, 2000 a Ptas for P Jj

In this lecture we consider another example of applying dynamic programming to scheduling problems. i. We shall see a PTAS for this problem, that had been proposed in 1997 by Alon, Azar, Woeginger, and Yadid ((AAWY97]). In the sequel we shall use the following notation. For a set of jobs J, let L(J) = 1 m P j2J p j. For J = f1; : : :; ng (i.e. the set of all the jobs), we will use a shorter not...

We shall denote the partial order (precedence relation) by , where i j means job i must be completed before job j starts. We assume the precedence relation is speciied in the form of a directed acyclic graph G = (V; E) (V is the set of nodes), in which there is a path from i to j ii i j. Goal: Find a non-preemptive schedule on a single machine which minimizes j w j C j. Our problem is NP-hard i...

1 Algorithms for a Single Machine We show that simple greedy algorithms are optimal for some scheduling problems on a single machine with release dates and preemptions. SRPT Rule: At each moment, process the job with the shortest remaining processing time. Note that the implementation of SRPT is possible only when preemptions are allowed. Theorem 1.1 ((1]) SRPT rule is optimal for 1jr j ; pmtnj...

Modified Linear Approximation for Assessment of Rigid Block Dynamics

This study proposes a new linear approximation for solving the dynamic response equations of a rocking rigid block. Linearization assumptions which have already been used by Hounser and other researchers cannot be valid for all rocking blocks with various slenderness ratios and dimensions; hence, developing new methods which can result in better approximation of governing equations while keepin...

Viscosity approximation methods for W-mappings in Hilbert space

We suggest a explicit viscosity iterative algorithm for nding a common elementof the set of common xed points for W-mappings which solves somevariational inequality. Also, we prove a strong convergence theorem with somecontrol conditions. Finally, we apply our results to solve the equilibrium problems.Finally, examples and numerical results are also given.
