[HTML][HTML] A general framework for handling commitment in online throughput maximization

L Chen, F Eberle, N Megow, K Schewior… - Mathematical …, 2020 - Springer
We study a fundamental online job admission problem where jobs with deadlines arrive
online over time at their release dates, and the task is to determine a preemptive single …

Optimally handling commitment issues in online throughput maximization

F Eberle, N Megow, K Schewior - 28th Annual European …, 2020 - drops.dagstuhl.de
We consider a fundamental online scheduling problem in which jobs with processing times
and deadlines arrive online over time at their release dates. The task is to determine a …

Online throughput maximization on unrelated machines: Commitment is no burden

F Eberle, N Megow, K Schewior - ACM Transactions on Algorithms, 2023 - dl.acm.org
We consider a fundamental online scheduling problem in which jobs with processing times
and deadlines arrive online over time at their release dates. The task is to determine a …

A new approach to online scheduling: approximating the optimal competitive ratio

E Lübbecke, O Maurer, N Megow, A Wiese - ACM Transactions on …, 2016 - dl.acm.org
We propose a new approach to competitive analysis in online scheduling by introducing the
novel concept of competitive-ratio approximation schemes. Such a scheme algorithmically …

Online scheduling with hard deadlines

SA Goldman, J Parwatikar, S Suri - Journal of Algorithms, 2000 - Elsevier
We study non-preemptive, online admission control in the hard deadline model: each job
must either be serviced prior to its deadline or be rejected. Our setting consists of a single …

Online scheduling with known arrival times

NG Hall, ME Posner, CN Potts - Mathematics of Operations …, 2009 - pubsonline.informs.org
We consider an online scheduling environment where decisions are made without
knowledge of the data of jobs that may arrive later. However, additional jobs can only arrive …

Scheduling for flow-time with admission control

N Bansal, A Blum, S Chawla, K Dhamdhere - European Symposium on …, 2003 - Springer
We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on a single machine with preemption, when the
server is allowed to reject jobs at some penalty. We consider minimizing two objectives: total …

Weighted flow time does not admit o (1)-competitive algorithms

N Bansal, HL Chan - Proceedings of the twentieth annual ACM-SIAM …, 2009 - SIAM
We consider the classic online scheduling problem of minimizing the total weighted flow
time on a single machine with preemptions. Here, each job j has an arbitrary arrival time rj …

Commitment and slack for online load maximization

S Jamalabadi, C Schwiegelshohn… - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
We consider a basic admission control problem in which jobs with deadlines arrive online
and our goal is to maximize the total volume of executed job processing times. We assume …

Minimizing weighted flow time

N Bansal, K Dhamdhere - ACM Transactions on Algorithms (TALG), 2007 - dl.acm.org
We consider the problem of minimizing the total weighted flow time on a single machine with
preemptions. We give an online algorithm that is O (k)-competitive for k weight classes. This …
