Stochastic schedul- ing of heavy-tailed jobs. In Proceedings of the 32nd Interna- tional Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Sci- ence, volume 30 ...

Jun 21, 2022 · In this paper, we show that FCFS can be stochastically improved upon under far weaker conditions. We consider a system with 2 job types and limited swapping.

Feb 29, 2024 · Chapter 4 addresses the issue of robust scheduling at the inter-job level, focusing on scheduling across waiting jobs in a single server queue.

Heavy-tailed distributions are found throughout many naturally occurring phenomena. We have reviewed the models of stochastic dynamics that lead to ...

Jun 21, 2022 · The fact that FCFS can be stochastically improved upon under far weaker conditions is important as it is much easier in a real system to ...

... stochastic scheduling (contrasting tothose distributions with a heavy tail), one may well expect agood approximation algorithm. Unfortunately, we prove that ...

Feb 3, 2021 · In this work, we study a stochastic single machine scheduling problem in which the features of learning effect on processing times, sequence-dependent setup ...

In this dissertation we study a broad class of stochastic scheduling problems characterized by the presence of hard deadline constraints.
