摘要
We study the online scheduling problem where the machines need to be calibrated before processing any jobs. To calibrate a machine, it will take lambda time steps as the activation time, and then the machine will remain calibrated status for T time steps. The job can only be processed by the machine that is in calibrated status. Given a set of jobs arriving online, each of the jobs is characterized by a release time, a processing time, and a deadline. We assume that there is an infinite number of machines for usage. The objective is to minimize the total number of calibrations while feasibly scheduling all jobs. For the case that all jobs have unit processing times, we propose an O(lambda)-competitive algorithm, which is asymptotically optimal. When lambda = 0, the problem is degraded to rent minimization, where our algorithm achieves a competitive ratio of 3e + 7(approximate to 15.16) which improves upon the previous results for such problems.
