Abstract

In this paper we are concerned with algorithms producing schedules for processes which consist of a finite set of tasks and a precedence relation between them. For executing tasks a system of m identical processors is available. We are interested in algorithms producing non preemptive schedules which are nearly time-optimal. For some well-known algorithms the lengths of their schedules are compared with the lengths of time-minimal schedules. A new algorithm which produces considerably better schedules is presented and discussed.
