The Worst-case Analysis of the Carey-Johnson Algorithm for preemptive tasks on m processors. In proceedings of the 2nd Multidisciplinary International Conference on Scheduling : Theory and Applications (MISTA 2005), 18 -21 July 2005, New York, USA, pages 453-470, 2005.
Paper
The classical Garey-Johnson algorithm was originally developed for the maximum lateness problem with two parallel identical machines and partially ordered unit execution time tasks, but the main idea of the Garey-Johnson algorithm is applicable far beyond the confines of this particular problem. This paper analyzes the worst-case performance of a generalization of the Garey-Johnson algorithm for the problem with arbitrary number of machines and partially ordered tasks allowing preemptions. The presented performance guarantee is the best among all currently known for this problem.
