Short Term vs. Long Term Scheduling. Most computer operating systems must multi-task. They use a scheduling algorithm that decides which of the many processes can be run at any given time.

Integration of process planning and scheduling seeks to create new efficiencies for the manufacturer that allow the business to save money. For example, the business can plan to have raw materials ...

Round-Robin (RR) is the vastly used process scheduling algorithm where, all processes are allocated some time shares in a circular order. If a process is able to complete its execution within this ...

We review the computational complexity of a wide variety of no-wait and blocking scheduling problems and describe several problems which remain open as to complexity. We study several deterministic ...

The algorithms continue to “learn” at an astonishing clip, providing a way to break through the log jam that exists in the U.S. healthcare system. Image: cosmin4000, Getty Images ...
