On nonpreemptive strategies in stochastic scheduling

K. D. Glazebrook

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1981, vol. 28, issue 2, 289-300

Abstract: It is shown that there is an optimal strategy for a class of stochastic scheduling problems which is nonpreemptive. The results which yield this conclusion are generalizations of previous ones due to Glazebrook and Gittins. These new results also lead to an evaluation of the performance of nonpreemptive strategies in a large class of problems of practical interest.
