A new representation for the scheduling problem and its applications
Résumé
We present a new representation for the scheduling problem that allows a significant simplification for its solution, especially for the multiprocessor case. We use this representation to solve in an efficient way the periodic scheduling problem on uniform multiprocessors, which has been open for a long time. We also derive optimal multiprocessor schedulers for several other important cases, such as finite job sets and the task systems for OASIS.
