A unified approach to approximating resource allocation and scheduling.

We present a general framework for solving resource allocation and scheduling problems. Given a resource of fixed size, we present algorithms that approximate the maximum throughput or the minimum loss by a constant factor. Our approximation factors apply to many problems, among which are: (i) real-...
