We consider the problem of scheduling n independent jobs on two identical parallel machines, with a limit on the number of jobs that can be assigned to each single machine, so as to minimize the total weighted completion time of the jobs. We study a semideΓΏnite programming-based approximation algori
We discuss scheduling problems with m identical machines and n jobs where each job has to be assigned to some machine. The goal is to optimize objective functions that solely depend on the machine completion times. As a main result, we identify some conditions on the objective function, under which
We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of weighted completion times of jobs scheduled on unrelated parallel machines. That is, there are n jobs and m machines; job j takes p GH units of time if processed on machine i and has a weight w H . If C H is the completion time of job j, the objective
