SOLVED:Consider the following scheduling problem. There are m machines, each of which can process jobs, one job at a time. The problem is to assign jobs to machines (each job needs to be assigned to exactly one machine) and order the jobs on machines so as to minimize a cost function. The machines run at different speeds, but jobs are identical in their processing needs. More formally, each machine i has a parameter ℓi, and each job requires ℓi time if assigned to machine i. There are n jobs. Jo
