Abstract: | We consider the problem of scheduling a maximum profit selection of equal length jobs on m identical machines. Jobs arrive online over time and the goal is to determine a non-preemptive schedule which maximizes the total profit of the scheduled jobs. Let the common processing requirement of the jobs be p>0. For each job ji, i=1,…,n we are given a release time ri (at which the job becomes known) and a deadline ri+p+δi. If the job is scheduled and completed before the deadline, a profit of wi is earned. |
