Algorithms for the Multi-Resource Generalized Assignment Problem

Gavish, Bezalel; Pirkul, Hasan - In: Management Science 37 (1991) 6, pp. 695-713

The multi-resource generalized assignment problem is encountered when a set of tasks have to be assigned to a set of … resources consumed by that agent. This problem differs from the generalized assignment problem in that an agent consumes not … procedures for the multi-resource generalized assignment problem. Various relaxations of the problem are studied and theoretical …

Scheduling of Project Networks by Job Assignment

Drexl, Andreas - In: Management Science 37 (1991) 12, pp. 1590-1602

individuals (resources) to each job. In this paper we consider the nonpreemptive variant of a resource-constrained project job-assignment … problem, where job durations as well as costs depend upon the assigned resource. Regarding precedence relations as well as …

On Optimal Allocation in a Distributed Processing Environment

Dutta, Amitava; Koehler, Gary; Whinston, Andrew - In: Management Science 28 (1982) 8, pp. 839-853

Distributed processing has been motivated by many objectives. Among these are a desire to share resources, reduce communications costs (as compared to a centralized processing scheme), increase performance and decrease response time by partitioning tasks and achieve higher system availability...
