We study the problem of on-line scheduling on two uniform machines with speeds 1 and s\*1. A +1.61803 competitive deterministic algorithm was already known. We present the "rst randomized results for this problem: We show that randomization does not help for speeds s\*2, but does help for all s(2. W

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.
within a small constant factor of log D (i.e., they are provably near-optimal) if r < 1/Klog DL; and (4) we introduce a novel admission control policy that partitions the server bandwidth based on the expected popularities of different request lengths and experimentally demonstrate its benefits comp
The solution of cyclic scheduling problems is part of the classical repertoire on scheduling algorithms. We consider a problem of cyclic scheduling of identical parts in a production line where transportation of the parts between machines is performed by several robots. The problem is to ΓΏnd co-ordi
