To schedule a job , an algorithm has to choose a machine count and assign j to a starting time and to machines during the time interval [, +,). A usual assumption for this kind of problem is that the total workload of a job, which is defined as d ⋅ p j , d {\displaystyle d\cdot p_{j,d}} , is non-increasing for an increasing number of machines.
There are many pleasingly parallel problems that have such relatively independent code blocks, in particular systems using pipes and filters. For example, when producing live broadcast television, the following tasks must be performed many times a second: Read a frame of raw pixel data from the image sensor,
The basic form of the problem of scheduling jobs with multiple (M) operations, over M machines, such that all of the first operations must be done on the first machine, all of the second operations on the second, etc., and a single job cannot be performed in parallel, is known as the flow-shop scheduling problem.
Optimal job scheduling is a class of optimization problems related to scheduling. The inputs to such problems are a list of jobs (also called processes or tasks) and a list of machines (also called processors or workers). The required output is a schedule – an assignment of jobs to machines. The schedule should optimize a certain objective ...
Identical-machines scheduling is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.We are given n jobs J 1, J 2, ..., J n of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on m identical machines, such that a certain objective function is optimized, for example, the makespan is minimized.
Unrelated-machines scheduling is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.It is a variant of optimal job scheduling.We need to schedule n jobs J 1, J 2, ..., J n on m different machines, such that a certain objective function is optimized (usually, the makespan should be minimized).
The Simple Temporal Network with Uncertainty (STNU) is a scheduling problem which involves controllable actions, uncertain events and temporal constraints. Dynamic Controllability for such problems is a type of scheduling which requires a temporal planning strategy to activate controllable actions reactively as uncertain events are observed so ...
The inclusion of the suppressed information is guided by the proof of a scheduling theorem due to Brent, [2] which is explained later in this article. The WT framework is useful since while it can greatly simplify the initial description of a parallel algorithm, inserting the details suppressed by that initial description is often not very ...
