2000 International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms and Networks (ISPAN '00)
NP-Completeness of the Bulk Synchronous Task Scheduling Problem and Its Approximation Algorithm
Dallas/Richardson, Texas, USA
December 07-December 07
ISBN: 0-7695-0936-3
The bulk synchronous task scheduling problem (BSSP) is known as an effective task scheduling problem for distributed-memory machines, but the time complexity of BSSP is unknown. This paper presents a proof of NP- completeness of BSSP even in the case of unit time tasks and positive integer constant communication delays. This paper also gives an approximation algorithm for BSSP in several restricted cases.
