Abstract: Job scheduling on parallel machines is a well-studied singleton congestion game. We consider a variant of this game, arising in environments with strong competition. In a scheduling game with rank-based utilities (SRBG) the players are partitioned into competition sets, and the goal of every player is to perform well relative to its competitors.
