Parallel task scheduling (also called parallel job scheduling or parallel processing scheduling) is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research. It is a variant of optimal job scheduling. In a general job scheduling problem, we are given n jobs J1, J2, ..., Jn of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on m machines while trying to minimize the makespan - the total length of the schedule (that is, when all the jobs have finished processing). In the specific variant known as parallel-task scheduling, all machines are identical. Each job j has a length parameter pj and a size parameter qj, and it must run for exactly pj time-steps on exactly qj machines in parallel.

| - Parallel task scheduling (also called parallel job scheduling or parallel processing scheduling) is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research. It is a variant of optimal job scheduling. In a general job scheduling problem, we are given n jobs J1, J2, ..., Jn of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on m machines while trying to minimize the makespan - the total length of the schedule (that is, when all the jobs have finished processing). In the specific variant known as parallel-task scheduling, all machines are identical. Each job j has a length parameter pj and a size parameter qj, and it must run for exactly pj time-steps on exactly qj machines in parallel. Veltman et al. and Drozdowski denote this problem by in the three-field notation introduced by Graham et al. P means that there are several identical machines running in parallel; sizej means that each job has a size parameter; Cmax means that the goal is to minimize the maximum completion time. Some authors use instead. The origins of this problem formulation can be traced back to 1960. For this problem, there exists no polynomial time approximation algorithm with a ratio smaller than unless . (en)
