We consider the problem of finding a minimum-length schedule on m machines for a set of n unit-length tasks with a forest of intrees as precedence relation, and with unit interprocessor communication delays. First, we prove that this problem is NP-complete; second, we derive a linear time algorithm
We show that the problem of scheduling chains of unit execution time (UET) jobs on uniform processors with communication delays to minimize makespan is NP-hard in the strong sense. We also give a heuristic that generates solutions with known, and relatively small, absolute error for this problem. Th
This paper presents a sensitivity analysis for the problem of scheduling trees with communication delays on two identical processors, to minimize the makespan. Tasks are supposed to have unit execution time (UET UET), and the values associated to communication delays are supposed unknown before the
