Abstract

We consider the problem of finding a minimum-length schedule on m machines for a set of n unit-length tasks with a forest of intrees as precedence relation, and with unit interprocessor communication delays. First we prove that this problem is NP-complete; second we derive a linear time algorithm for the special case that m equals 2.
