A parallel related uniform machine system consists of m machines with different processing speeds. The speed of any machine is independent on jobs. In this paper, we consider online scheduling for jobs with arbitrary release times on the parallel uniform machine system. The jobs appear over list in terms of order. An order includes the processing size and releasing time of a job. For this model, an algorithm with competitive ratio of 12 is addressed in this paper.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
