摘要：
Given a set of positive numbers, the max-min partition problem asks for a k-partition such that the minimum part is maximized. The min-ratio partition problem has the similar definition but the objective is to minimize the ratio of the maximum to the minimum parts. In this paper, we analyze the performances of the longest processing time (LPT) algorithm for the two problems. We show that the tight bounds of the LPT are, respectively (4k - 2)/(3k - 1) and (7)/(5) (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
