Abstract

Abstract Scheduling unrelated parallel machines with controllable processing times subject to release times is investigated. Based on the convex quadratic programming relaxation and the randomized rounding strategy, a 2-approximation algorithm is obtained for a special case with the all-or-none property and then a 3-approximation algorithm is presented for general problem.
