Abstract

In this paper we study the following problem. There are n pages which clients can request at any time. The arrival times of requests for pages are known. Several requests for the same page may arrive at different times. There is a server that needs to compute a good broadcast schedule. Outputting a page satisfies all outstanding requests for the page. The goal is to minimize the average waiting time of a client. This problem has recently been shown to be NP-hard. For any fixed 驴, 0
