摘要

This paper investigates the online scheduling of unit jobs with rejection on two identical parallel machines. All jobs arrive sequentially in an online fashion, and upon each job’s arrival, an immediate decision must be made to either accept or reject it. The goal is to minimize the maximum quadratic completion time of accepted jobs plus the total rejection penalty of rejected jobs. For this problem, we present a deterministic online algorithm with the best-possible competitive ratio of 2.
