几种不同类型的无关机器排序问题

Scheduling Unrelated Machines of Few Different Types

Vincenzo Bonifaci, Andreas Wiese

摘要:

调度中一个非常著名的机器模型允许机器是不相关的,对每台机器上可能具有不同特征的作业进行建模。由于其通用性,这种形式的许多优化问题非常难以解决,并且通常是APX困难的。然而,在许多应用中,不同类型的机器(诸如处理器核、GPU等)的数量非常有限。在本文中,我们解决这一点,并研究工作分配给不相关的机器的情况下,每台机器属于一个固定数量的类型和每种类型的机器是相同的。本文提出了一种多项式时间近似算法(PTASs),用于极小化具有固定维数的多维工件的最大完工时间和极小化L_p-范数。特别是,我们的研究结果subsidiary和推广现有的PTAS为常数无关的机器和任意数量的相同的机器,这些问题。我们采用了一些技术,超越了以前已知的结果,包括一个新的计数参数和方法,使稀疏极值点解的概念可用于凸规划。

英文摘要:

A very well-known machine model in scheduling allows the machines to be unrelated, modelling jobs that might have different characteristics on each machine. Due to its generality, many optimization problems of this form are very difficult to tackle and typically APX-hard. However, in many applications the number of different types of machines, such as processor cores, GPUs, etc. is very limited. In this paper, we address this point and study the assignment of jobs to unrelated machines in the case that each machine belongs to one of a fixed number of types and the machines of each type are identical. We present polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for minimizing the makespan for multidimensional jobs with a fixed number of dimensions and for minimizing the L_p-norm. In particular, our results subsume and generalize the existing PTASs for a constant number of unrelated machines and for an arbitrary number of identical machines for these problems. We employ a number of techniques which go beyond the previously known results, including a new counting argument and a method for making the concept of sparse extreme point solutions usable for a convex program.
