Scheduling Precedence Graphs in Systems with Interprocessor Communication Times

Popis
Shrnutí:The problem of nonpreemptively scheduling a set of $m$ partially ordered tasks on $n$ identical processors subject to interprocessor communication delays is studied in an effort to minimize the makespan. A new heuristic, called Earliest Task First (ETF), is designed and analyzed. It is shown that the makespan $\omega _{{\text{ETF}}} $ generated by ETF always satisfies $\omega _{{\text{ETF}}} \leqq ({{2 - 1} / n})\omega _{{\text{opt}}}^{(i)} + C$, where $\omega _{{\text{opt}}}^{(i)} $ is the optimal makespan without considering communication delays and $C$ is the communication requirements over some immediate predecessor-immediate successor pairs along one chain. An algorithm is also provided to calculate $C$. The time complexity of Algorithm ETF is $O(nm^2 )$.
