Envy-free makespan approximation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 11th ACM conference on Electronic commerce, 2010
We study envy-free mechanisms for scheduling tasks on unrelated machines (agents) that approximately minimize the makespan. For indivisible tasks, we put forward an envy-free poly-time mechanism that approximates the minimal makespan to within a factor of O(log m), where m is the number of machines.

Proportionally Fair Makespan Approximation

open access: yesProceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence
We study fair mechanisms for the classic job scheduling problem on unrelated machines with the objective of minimizing the makespan. This problem is equivalent to minimizing the egalitarian social cost in the fair division of chores. The two prevalent fairness notions in the fair division literature are envy-freeness and proportionality. Prior work has

Makespan minimization with OR-precedence constraints [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Scheduling, 2021
AbstractWe consider a variant of the NP-hard problem of assigning jobs to machines to minimize the completion time of the last job. Usually, precedence constraints are given by a partial order on the set of jobs, and each job requires all its predecessors to be completed before it can start.

Envy-Free Makespan Approximation [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Computing, 2012
We study envy-free mechanisms for scheduling tasks on unrelated machines (agents) that approximately minimize the makespan. For indivisible tasks, we put forward an envy-free poly-time mechanism that approximates the minimal makespan to within a factor of $O(\log m)$, where $m$ is the number of machines.

Feature-Extraction-Based Iterated Algorithms to Solve the Unrelated Parallel Machine Problem With Periodic Maintenance Activities

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
This paper considers an unrelated parallel machine problem with job release times and maintenance activities, in which machines have to periodically undergo maintenance since the status of the machines will be deteriorated by job-induced dirt.

The power of reordering for online minimum makespan scheduling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the classic minimum makespan scheduling problem, we are given an input sequence of jobs with processing times. A scheduling algorithm has to assign the jobs to m parallel machines.
