Abstract

The paper presents two heuristic algorithms for scheduling jobs, using constrained common resource into an environment, consisted of identical connected computers. The particular case with equal or greater number of computers than the number of jobs is explored. The results, obtained by the proposed heuristic algorithms are compared to the exact solution, produced by classical branch and bound algorithm. The solutions, produced by all algorithms are proved to be statistically close. The proposed algorithms could be applied to schedule jobs for example in a real portfolio management system.
