Abstract

The problem of constructing makespan-optimal preemptive schedules for n independent jobs on m unrelated parallel processors is discussed. For the case of two processors, we present a linear time algorithm to construct optimal schedules. The schedules generated by our algorithm have at most two preemptions.
