The following greedy algorithm, called Earliest deadline first scheduling, does find the optimal solution for unweighted single-interval scheduling: Select the interval, x, with the earliest finishing time. Remove x, and all intervals intersecting x, from the set of candidate intervals. Repeat until the set of candidate intervals is empty.
Otherwise, disregard the interval. The interval scheduling problem can be viewed as a profit maximization problem, where the number of intervals in the mutually compatible subset is the profit. The charging argument can be used to show that the earliest finish time algorithm is optimal for the interval scheduling problem.
Longest-processing-time-first (LPT) is a greedy algorithm for job scheduling. The input to the algorithm is a set of jobs, each of which has a specific processing-time. There is also a number m specifying the number of machines that can process the jobs. The LPT algorithm works as follows:
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 ...
The activity selection problem is also known as the Interval scheduling maximization problem (ISMP), which is a special type of the more general Interval Scheduling problem. A classic application of this problem is in scheduling a room for multiple competing events, each having its own time requirements (start and end time), and many more arise ...
The modified due date scheduling is a scheduling heuristic created in 1982 by Baker and Bertrand, [1] used to solve the NP-hard single machine total-weighted tardiness problem. This problem is centered around reducing the global tardiness of a list of tasks which are characterized by their processing time, due date and weight by re-ordering them.
The attorneys have said they plan to file a complaint with the Office of Inspector General as well as immigration petitions to see if Salazar-Hinojosa and her children can return to the U.S. under ...
