โฆ Synopsis
We study the minimum total weighted completion time problem on identical machines. We analyze a simple local search heuristic, moving jobs from one machine to another. The local optima can be shown to be approximately optimal with approximation ratio 3 2 . In a special case, the approximation ratio is 3 2 -1/ โ 6 โ 1.092.

## Abstract We consider the problem of scheduling orders on identical machines in parallel. Each order consists of one or more individual jobs. A job that belongs to an order can be processed by any one of the machines. Multiple machines can process the jobs of an order concurrently. No setup is re
