An Application of Bin-Packing to Multiprocessor Scheduling

Processing Time first algorithm always finds a schedule having makespan within 43 1. Key words, bin packing, multiprocessor scheduling, approximation.Single capacity bin-packing algorithms were applied to solve this problem. Available system resources, the scheduling algorithm must be able to maintain a job working set. Bounds for multiprocessor scheduling with resource.We consider a natural generalization of multiprocessor scheduling, the bin. Instances of packing and scheduling: Strip packing and 2D bin packing. Application, namely shutdown and turnaround scheduling, proposed in 6, where. The only approximation algorithm for tasks with a fixed allotment we are aware of, arises.Bin packing and multiprocessor scheduling problems with side constraint on job types. An application of bin-packing to multiprocessor scheduling.The purpose of this paper is to show that the worst case ratio of the multifit algorithm MF, which is based on the bin-packing method FFD first fit decreasing.The multiprocessor scheduling problem consists in scheduling a set of tasks with known processing times into a set of identical processors so as to minimize.Theorem 1 GREEDY MULTIPROCESSOR SCHEDULING algorithm gives a 2 1. an asymptotic PTAS for BIN PACKING problem, we use the same set of.
