Abstract In the paper we consider the problem of scheduling n identical jobs on 4 uniform machines with speeds s ≥ s ≥ s ≥ s , respectively. Our aim is to find a schedule with a minimum possible length. We assume that jobs are subject to some kind of mutual exclusion constraints modeled by a bipartite incompatibility graph of degree Δ, where two incompatible jobs cannot be processed on the same machine. We show that the general problem is NP-hard even if s = s = s . If, however, Δ ≤ 4 and s ≥ 12s , s = s = s , then the problem can be solved to optimality in time O(n ). The same algorithm returns a solution of value at most 2 times optimal provided that s ≥ 2s . Finally, we study the case s ≥ s ≥ s = s and give a 32/15-approximation algorithm running also in O(n ) time.
AbstractList In the paper we consider the problem of scheduling n identical jobs on 4 uniform machines with speeds s[1] ≥ s[2] ≥ s[3] ≥ s[4], respectively. Our aim is to find a schedule with a minimum possible length. We assume that jobs are subject to some kind of mutual exclusion constraints modeled by a bipartite incompatibility graph of degree Δ, where two incompatible jobs cannot be processed on the same machine. We show that the general problem is NP-hard even if s[1] = s[2] = s[3]. If, however, Δ ≤ 4 and s[1] ≥ 12s[2], s[2] = s[3] = s[4], then the problem can be solved to optimality in time O(n[1.5]). The same algorithm returns a solution of value at most 2 times optimal provided that s[1] ≥ 2s[2]. Finally, we study the case s[1] ≥ s[2] ≥ s[3] = s[4] and give a 32/15-approximation algorithm running also in O(n[1.5]) time.
