This paper uses trace-driven simulations to evaluate two novel Web server scheduling policies called KSRPT and T-SRPT. K-SRPT is a multi-threaded version of SRPT (Shortest Remaini...
The Flexible Resource Manager (FRM) is a dynamic resource management approach that allows a better utilization of the available resources. However, it necessitates an atomic recon...
Consider a single machine and a set of jobs that are available for processing at time 0. Job ¡ has a processing time ¢¤£ , a due date ¥¦£ and a weight §¨£ . We consid...
We study a variant of classical scheduling, which is called scheduling with “end of sequence” information. It is known in advance that the last job has the longest processing ...
This work deals with an original problem with regard to the traditionally sequential planning process in public transit networks. This problem aims at modifying the network's ...
