Task Scheduling for Highly Concurrent Analytical and Transactional Main-Memory Workloads

Anastasia Ailamaki, Iraklis Psaroudakis

Task scheduling typically employs a worker thread per hardware context to process a dynamically changing set of tasks. It is an appealing solution to exploit modern multi-core processors, as it eases parallelization and avoids unnecessary context switches ...

Santa Claus Schedules Jobs On Unrelated Machines

Ola Nils Anders Svensson

One of the classic results in scheduling theory is the 2-approximation algorithm by Lenstra, Shmoys, and Tardos for the problem of scheduling jobs to minimize makespan on unrelated machines; i.e., job j requires time p(ij) if processed on machine i. More t ...

Approximation Algorithms for Modern Multi-Processor Scheduling Problems

Martin Niemeier

This thesis is devoted to the design and analysis of algorithms for scheduling problems. These problems are ubiquitous in the modern world. Examples include the optimization of local transportation, managing access to concurrent resources like runways at a ...

Tight Approximation Algorithms for Scheduling with Fixed Jobs and Nonavailability

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Klaus Jansen

We study two closely related problems in nonpreemptive scheduling of jobs on identical parallel machines. In these two settings there are either fixed jobs or nonavailability intervals during which the machines are not available; in both cases, the objecti ...

Partitioned real-time scheduling on heterogeneous shared-memory multiprocessors

Martin Niemeier

We consider several real-time scheduling problems on heterogeneous multiprocessor platforms, in which the different processors share a common memory pool. These include (i)~scheduling a collection of implicit-deadline sporadic tasks with the objective of m ...

Minimum clique partition in unit disk graphs

János Pach

The minimum clique partition (MCP) problem is that of partitioning the vertex set of a given graph into a minimum number of cliques. Given n points in the plane, the corresponding unit disk graph (UDG) has these points as vertices, and edges connecting poi ...

EDF-schedulability of synchronous periodic task systems is coNP-hard

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Thomas Rothvoss

In the synchronous periodic task model, a set \tau_1,...,\tau_n of tasks is given, each releasing jobs of running time c_i with relative deadline d_i, at each integer multiple of the period p_i. It is a classical result that Earliest Deadline First (EDF) i ...

Solving an Avionics Real-Time Scheduling Problem by Advanced IP-Methods

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Martin Niemeier

We report on the solution of a real-time scheduling problem that arises in the design of software-based operation control of aircraft. A set of tasks has to be distributed on a minimum number of machines and offsets of the tasks have to be computed. The ta ...

On the computational complexity of periodic scheduling

Thomas Rothvoss

In periodic scheduling jobs arrive regularly and have to be executed on one or several machines or processors. An enormous amount of literature has been published on this topic, e.g. the founding work of Liu & Layland [LL73] is among the top cited computer ...
