Abstract
Scheduling problems concern the allocation of limited resources over time among both parallel and sequential activities. The majority of these problems belong to the class of NP-hard Agent-based approaches have been applied to solve difficult scheduling problems. Load balancing is usually adopted as an optimization criterion for some scheduling problems, such as resource allocation in grid computing environments. However, in many practical …
