Abstract

We consider the problem of scheduling a set of independent jobs on a single machine so as to minimize the total weighted completion time, subject to the constraint that the total compression cost is less than or equal to a fixed amount. The complexity of this problem is mentioned as an open problem. In this note we show that the problem is NP-hard. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
