We show that the problem of finding an optimal schedule for a set of jobs is NPcomplete even in the following two restricted cases. (1) All jobs require one time unit. (2) All jobs require one or two time units, and there are only two processor resolving (in the negative a conjecture of R. L. Grah
We prove that the problem STO of deciding whether or not a finite set E of term equations is subject to occur-check is in NP. E is subject to occur-check if the execution of the Martelli-Montanari unification algorithm gives for input E a set E โช {x = t}, where t = x and x appears in t. Apt et al. (
It is shown that the MAXZSAT problem is NP-complete even if every variable appears in at most three clauses. However, if every variable appears in at most two clauses, it is shown that it (and even the general MAXSAT problem) can be solved in linear time. When every variable appears in at most three
