Improved Approximation Algorithms for Parallel Task Scheduling and Multiple Cluster Scheduling
Bennet Edler, Klaus Jansen, Felix Ohnesorge +1
In the problem of Parallel Task Scheduling (PTS), we are asked to schedule jobs, each with a fixed processing time and machine requirement, such that the completion time of the…
The Support of Bin Packing is Exponential
Klaus Jansen, Felix Ohnesorge, Lis Pirotton +1
Consider the classical Bin Packing problem with different item sizes and amounts of items The support of a Bin Packing solution is the number of differently filled…
Minimizing the Weighted Makespan with Restarts on a Single Machine
Aflatoun Amouzandeh, Klaus Jansen, Lis Pirotton +2
We consider the problem of minimizing the weighted makespan on a single machine with restarts. Restarts are similar to preemptions but weaker: a job can be interrupted, but then it…
New Algorithm for Combinatorial -folds and Applications
Klaus Jansen, Kai Kahler, Lis Pirotton +1
Block-structured integer linear programs (ILPs) play an important role in various application fields. We address -fold ILPs where the matrix has a specific structu…
