For the problem of scheduing identical jobs on a set of uniform parallel machines with random processing times, methods are given for optimizing the expected sum of weighted completion times and the probability of meeting a common due date.

In this paper, we derive bounds on performance guarantees of online algorithms for real-time preemptive scheduling of jobs with deadlines on K machines when jobs are characterized in terms of their minimum stretch factor (or, equivalently, their maximum execution rate r = 1= ). We consider two well-
Consider a number of jobs to be processed on a number of identical machines in parallel. A job has a processing time, a weight and a due date. If a job is followed by another job, a setup time independent of the machine is incurred. A three phase heuristic is presented for minimizing the sum of the
