Approximation algorithms for scheduling monotonic moldable tasks on multiple platforms
2023
Overview
We consider scheduling monotonic moldable tasks on multiple platforms, where each platform contains a set of processors. A moldable task can be split into several pieces of equal size and processed simultaneously on multiple processors. Tasks are not allowed to be processed spanning over platforms. This scheduling model has many applications, ranging from parallel computing to the berth and quay crane allocation and the workforce assignment problem. We develop several approximation algorithms aiming at minimizing the makespan. More precisely, we provide a 2-approximation algorithm for identical platforms, a Fully Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme (FPATS) under the assumption of large processor counts and a 2-approximation algorithm for a fixed number of heterogeneous platforms. Most of the proposed algorithms combine a dual approximation scheme with a novel approach to improve the dual approximation algorithm. All results can be extended to the contiguous case, i.e., a task can only be executed by contiguously numbered processors.
