In these formulations, the rules governing shift feasibility are encoded in block-based state-expanded networks in which nodes are associated with states and arcs represent assignments of blocks of work or break periods inducing state transitions. A key advantage of these formulations is that for the anonymous MASSP in which all employees are considered as equal only a single network with integer flow variables is needed as long as the network encodes all shift composition rules. A challenging aspect is that the networks can become very large, yielding huge models that are hard to solve for large problem instances. To address this challenge, this paper proposes two exact modeling techniques that substantially reduce the size of the model instances: First, it introduces a set of aggregate side constraints enforcing that an integer flow solution can be decomposed into paths representing feasible shifts. Second, it proposes to decouple the shift composition from the assignment of concrete activities to blocks of work periods, thereby removing a large amount of symmetry from the original model. In a computational study with two MASSP instance sets from the literature dealing with shift scheduling problems, we demonstrate the effectiveness of these techniques for reducing the both size of the model instances and the solution time: We are able to solve all instances, including more than 70 previously open instances, to optimality–the vast majority of them in less than 30 min on a notebook computer.</p>","PeriodicalId":50061,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Scheduling","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138533297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Addressing some key challenges in the allocation of shared resources to user requests (jobs) in such settings, we consider the following variants of the classic resource allocation problem (RAP). The input to our problems is a set J of jobs and a set M of homogeneous hosts, each has an available amount of some resource. Assuming that time is slotted, a job is associated with a release time, a due date, a weight and a given length, as well as its resource requirement. A feasible schedule is an allocation of the resource to a subset of the jobs, satisfying the job release times/due dates as well as the resource constraints. A crucial distinction between classic RAP and our problems is that we allow preemption and migration of jobs, motivated by virtualization techniques. We consider two natural objectives: throughput maximization (MaxT), which seeks a maximum weight subset of the jobs that can be feasibly scheduled on the hosts in M, and resource minimization (MinR), that is finding the minimum number of (homogeneous) hosts needed to feasibly schedule all jobs. Both problems are known to be NP-hard. We first present an $$Omega (1)$$ -approximation algorithm for MaxT instances where time-windows form a laminar family of intervals. We then extend the algorithm to handle instances with arbitrary time-windows, assuming there is sufficient slack for each job to be completed. For MinR we study a more general setting with d resources and derive an $$O(log d)$$ -approximation for any fixed $$d ge 1$$ , under the assumption that time-windows are not too small. This assumption can be removed leading to a slightly worse ratio of $$O(log dlog ^* T)$$ , where T is the maximum due date of any job.","PeriodicalId":50061,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Scheduling","volume":"49 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136296387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
