Title
Fast Approximation Algorithm For Job Sequencing With Deadlines
Abstract
The problem under consideration is to schedule jobs on a machine in order to minimize the sum of the penalties of delayed jobs. A “range-and-bound” method is proposed for finding a tight bound P̃ such that P̃ ≤ P ∗≤2 P̃ , P ∗ being the minimal sum desired. The considered scheduling problem, for n jobs and accuracy ε > 0, is solved by a fully polynomial ε-approximation algorithm in O(n 2 log n + n 2 ε ) time and O( n 2 ε ) space.
