## Abstract Fairness is an important aspect in queuing systems. Several fairness measures have been proposed in queuing systems in general and parallel job scheduling in particular. Generally, a scheduler is considered unfair if some jobs are discriminated whereas others are favored. Some of the me

## Abstract In the classical multiprocessor scheduling problem independent jobs must be assigned to parallel, identical machines with the objective of minimizing the makespan. This article explores the effect of assignment restrictions on the jobs for multiprocessor scheduling problems. This means
We study randomized on-line scheduling on mesh machines. We show that for scheduling independent jobs randomized algorithms can achieve a significantly better performance than deterministic ones; on the other hand with dependencies randomization does not help.
Most machine scheduling models assume that the machines are available all of the time. However, in most realistic situations, machines need to be maintained and hence may become unavailable during certain periods. In this paper, we study the problem of processing a set of n jobs on m parallel machin
We consider the multiprocessor job shop scheduling problem (JSP) with unrelated processors, an extension of the classical JSP. The precedence relations between the operations are given by an acyclic directed weighted graph, in which nodes represent operations and arcs represent precedence relations.
