Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces scheduling algorithms that help make the most of processor time on computers. It provides solutions to cyclical scheduling issues where tasks must be carried out repeatedly in a particular order. First, the author presents an efficient algorithm for generating optimum schedules when there are an unlimited number of processors. The second half of the book addresses the more complex issue of scheduling for a specific number of processors. The author provides an efficient algorithm that guarantees schedules within a small margin of optimality. The book ends with a discussion of how the ideas and algorithms presented can be applied to real-world scheduling problems.
