The paper considers the three‐machine open shop scheduling problem to minimize themakespan. It is assumed that each job consists of at most two operations, one of which is tobe processed on the bottleneck machine, the same for all jobs. A new lower bound on theoptimal makespan is derived, and a linear‐time algorithm for finding an optimalnon‐preemptive schedule is presented.

The paper considers the job shop scheduling problem to minimize the makespan. It is assumed that each job consists of at most two operations, one of which is to be processed on one of m⩾2 machines, while the other operation must be performed on a single bottleneck machine, the same for all jobs. For this strongly NP-hard problem we present two heuristics with improved worst-case performance. One of them guarantees a worst-case performance ratio of 3/2. The other algorithm creates a schedule with the makespan that exceeds the largest machine workload by at most the length of the largest operation.

This paper considers the problem of processing n jobs in a two-machine non-preemptive open shop to minimize the makespan, i.e., the maximum completion time. One of the machines is assumed to be non-bottleneck. It is shown that, unlike its flow shop counterpart, the problem is NP-hard in the ordinary sense. On the other hand, the problem is shown to be solvable by a dynamic programming algorithm that requires pseudopolynomial time. The latter algorithm can be converted into a fully polynomial approximation scheme that runs in time. An O(n log n) approximation algorithm is also designed whi finds a schedule with makespan at most 5/4 times the optimal value, and this bound is tight.

It is known that for the open shop scheduling problem to minimize the makespan there exists no polynomial-time heuristic algorithm that guarantees a worst-case performance ratio better than 5/4, unless P6≠NP. However, this result holds only if the instance of the problem contains jobs consisting of at least three operations. This paper considers the open shop scheduling problem, provided that each job consists of at most two operations, one of which is to be processed on one of the m⩾2 machines, while the other operation must be performed on the bottleneck machine, the same for all jobs. For this NP-hard problem we present a heuristic algorithm and show that its worst-case performance ratio is 5/4.

An important factor for high-speed optical communication is the availability of ultrafast and low-noise photodetectors. Among the semiconductor photodetectors that are commonly used in today’s long-haul and metro-area fiber-optic systems, avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are often preferred over p-i-n photodiodes due to their internal gain, which significantly improves the receiver sensitivity and alleviates the need for optical pre-amplification. Unfortunately, the random nature of the very process of carrier impact ionization, which generates the gain, is inherently noisy and results in fluctuations not only in the gain but also in the time response. Recently, a theory characterizing the autocorrelation function of APDs has been developed by us which incorporates the dead-space effect, an effect that is very significant in thin, high-performance APDs. The research extends the time-domain analysis of the dead-space multiplication model to compute the autocorrelation function of the APD impulse response. However, the computation requires a large amount of memory space and is very time consuming. In this research, we describe our experiences in parallelizing the code in MPI and OpenMP using CAPTools. Several array partitioning schemes and scheduling policies are implemented and tested. Our results show that the code is scalable up to 64 processors on a SGI Origin 2000 machine and has small average errors.
