Non-Clairvoyant Makespan Minimization Scheduling with Predictions

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Alexander Kononov, Giorgio Lucarelli, and Fanny Pascual

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 283, 34th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2023)


Abstract
We revisit the classical non-clairvoyant problem of scheduling a set of n jobs on a set of m parallel identical machines where the processing time of a job is not known until the job finishes. Our objective is the minimization of the makespan, i.e., the date at which the last job terminates its execution. We adopt the framework of learning-augmented algorithms and we study the question of whether (possibly erroneous) predictions may help design algorithms with a competitive ratio which is good when the prediction is accurate (consistency), deteriorates gradually with respect to the prediction error (smoothness), and not too bad and bounded when the prediction is arbitrarily bad (robustness). We first consider the non-preemptive case and we devise lower bounds, as a function of the error of the prediction, for any deterministic learning-augmented algorithm. Then we analyze a variant of Longest Processing Time first (LPT) algorithm (with and without release dates) and we prove that it is consistent, smooth, and robust. Furthermore, we study the preemptive case and we provide lower bounds for any deterministic algorithm with predictions as a function of the prediction error. Finally, we introduce a variant of the classical Round Robin algorithm (RR), the Predicted Proportional Round Robin algorithm (PPRR), which we prove to be consistent, smooth and robust.

Learning-Augmented Online TSP on Rings, Trees, Flowers and (Almost) Everywhere Else

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Bruno Escoffier, Themis Gouleakis, Niklas Hahn, Kostas Lakis, Golnoosh Shahkarami, and Michalis Xefteris

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)


Abstract
We study the Online Traveling Salesperson Problem (OLTSP) with predictions. In OLTSP, a sequence of initially unknown requests arrive over time at points (locations) of a metric space. The goal is, starting from a particular point of the metric space (the origin), to serve all these requests while minimizing the total time spent. The server moves with unit speed or is "waiting" (zero speed) at some location. We consider two variants: in the open variant, the goal is achieved when the last request is served. In the closed one, the server additionally has to return to the origin. We adopt a prediction model, introduced for OLTSP on the line [Gouleakis et al., 2023], in which the predictions correspond to the locations of the requests and extend it to more general metric spaces. We first propose an oracle-based algorithmic framework, inspired by previous work [Bampis et al., 2023]. This framework allows us to design online algorithms for general metric spaces that provide competitive ratio guarantees which, given perfect predictions, beat the best possible classical guarantee (consistency). Moreover, they degrade gracefully along with the increase in error (smoothness), but always within a constant factor of the best known competitive ratio in the classical case (robustness). Having reduced the problem to designing suitable efficient oracles, we describe how to achieve this for general metric spaces as well as specific metric spaces (rings, trees and flowers), the resulting algorithms being tractable in the latter case. The consistency guarantees of our algorithms are tight in almost all cases, and their smoothness guarantees only suffer a linear dependency on the error, which we show is necessary. Finally, we provide robustness guarantees improving previous results.

The Covering Canadian Traveller Problem Revisited

Authors: Niklas Hahn and Michalis Xefteris

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 272, 48th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2023)


Abstract
In this paper, we consider the k-Covering Canadian Traveller Problem (k-CCTP), which can be seen as a variant of the Travelling Salesperson Problem. The goal of k-CCTP is finding the shortest tour for a traveller to visit a set of locations in a given graph and return to the origin. Crucially, unknown to the traveller, up to k edges of the graph are blocked and the traveller only discovers blocked edges online at one of their respective endpoints. The currently best known upper bound for k-CCTP is O(√k) which was shown in [Huang and Liao, ISAAC '12]. We improve this polynomial bound to a logarithmic one by presenting a deterministic O(log k)-competitive algorithm that runs in polynomial time. Further, we demonstrate the tightness of our analysis by giving a lower bound instance for our algorithm.

Orienting (Hyper)graphs Under Explorable Stochastic Uncertainty

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Christoph Dürr, Thomas Erlebach, Murilo Santos de Lima, Nicole Megow, and Jens Schlöter

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 204, 29th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2021)


Abstract
Given a hypergraph with uncertain node weights following known probability distributions, we study the problem of querying as few nodes as possible until the identity of a node with minimum weight can be determined for each hyperedge. Querying a node has a cost and reveals the precise weight of the node, drawn from the given probability distribution. Using competitive analysis, we compare the expected query cost of an algorithm with the expected cost of an optimal query set for the given instance. For the general case, we give a polynomial-time f(α)-competitive algorithm, where f(α) ∈ [1.618+ε,2] depends on the approximation ratio α for an underlying vertex cover problem. We also show that no algorithm using a similar approach can be better than 1.5-competitive. Furthermore, we give polynomial-time 4/3-competitive algorithms for bipartite graphs with arbitrary query costs and for hypergraphs with a single hyperedge and uniform query costs, with matching lower bounds.

Online Multistage Subset Maximization Problems

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Bruno Escoffier, Kevin Schewior, and Alexandre Teiller

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 144, 27th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2019)


Abstract
Numerous combinatorial optimization problems (knapsack, maximum-weight matching, etc.) can be expressed as subset maximization problems: One is given a ground set N={1,...,n}, a collection F subseteq 2^N of subsets thereof such that the empty set is in F, and an objective (profit) function p: F -> R_+. The task is to choose a set S in F that maximizes p(S). We consider the multistage version (Eisenstat et al., Gupta et al., both ICALP 2014) of such problems: The profit function p_t (and possibly the set of feasible solutions F_t) may change over time. Since in many applications changing the solution is costly, the task becomes to find a sequence of solutions that optimizes the trade-off between good per-time solutions and stable solutions taking into account an additional similarity bonus. As similarity measure for two consecutive solutions, we consider either the size of the intersection of the two solutions or the difference of n and the Hamming distance between the two characteristic vectors. We study multistage subset maximization problems in the online setting, that is, p_t (along with possibly F_t) only arrive one by one and, upon such an arrival, the online algorithm has to output the corresponding solution without knowledge of the future. We develop general techniques for online multistage subset maximization and thereby characterize those models (given by the type of data evolution and the type of similarity measure) that admit a constant-competitive online algorithm. When no constant competitive ratio is possible, we employ lookahead to circumvent this issue. When a constant competitive ratio is possible, we provide almost matching lower and upper bounds on the best achievable one.

Multistage Knapsack

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Bruno Escoffier, and Alexandre Teiller

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 138, 44th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2019)


Abstract
Many systems have to be maintained while the underlying constraints, costs and/or profits change over time. Although the state of a system may evolve during time, a non-negligible transition cost is incured for transitioning from one state to another. In order to model such situations, Gupta et al. (ICALP 2014) and Eisenstat et al. (ICALP 2014) introduced a multistage model where the input is a sequence of instances (one for each time step), and the goal is to find a sequence of solutions (one for each time step) that simultaneously (i) have good quality on the time steps and (ii) as stable as possible. We focus on the multistage version of the Knapsack problem where we are given a time horizon t=1,2,...,T, and a sequence of knapsack instances I_1,I_2,...,I_T, one for each time step, defined on a set of n objects. In every time step t we have to choose a feasible knapsack S_t of I_t, which gives a knapsack profit. To measure the stability/similarity of two consecutive solutions S_t and S_{t+1}, we identify the objects for which the decision, to be picked or not, remains the same in S_t and S_{t+1}, giving a transition profit. We are asked to produce a sequence of solutions S_1,S_2,...,S_T so that the total knapsack profit plus the overall transition profit is maximized. We propose a PTAS for the Multistage Knapsack problem. This is the first approximation scheme for a combinatorial optimization problem in the considered multistage setting, and its existence contrasts with the inapproximability results for other combinatorial optimization problems that are even polynomial-time solvable in the static case (e.g.multistage Spanning Tree, or multistage Bipartite Perfect Matching). Then, we prove that there is no FPTAS for the problem even in the case where T=2, unless P=NP. Furthermore, we give a pseudopolynomial time algorithm for the case where the number of steps is bounded by a fixed constant and we show that otherwise the problem remains NP-hard even in the case where all the weights, profits and capacities are 0 or 1.

Multistage Matchings

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Bruno Escoffier, Michael Lampis, and Vangelis Th. Paschos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 101, 16th Scandinavian Symposium and Workshops on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2018)


Abstract
We consider a multistage version of the Perfect Matching problem which models the scenario where the costs of edges change over time and we seek to obtain a solution that achieves low total cost, while minimizing the number of changes from one instance to the next. Formally, we are given a sequence of edge-weighted graphs on the same set of vertices V, and are asked to produce a perfect matching in each instance so that the total edge cost plus the transition cost (the cost of exchanging edges), is minimized. This model was introduced by Gupta et al. (ICALP 2014), who posed as an open problem its approximability for bipartite instances. We completely resolve this question by showing that Minimum Multistage Perfect Matching (Min-MPM) does not admit an n^{1-epsilon}-approximation, even on bipartite instances with only two time steps. Motivated by this negative result, we go on to consider two variations of the problem. In Metric Minimum Multistage Perfect Matching problem (Metric-Min-MPM) we are promised that edge weights in each time step satisfy the triangle inequality. We show that this problem admits a 3-approximation when the number of time steps is 2 or 3. On the other hand, we show that even the metric case is APX-hard already for 2 time steps. We then consider the complementary maximization version of the problem, Maximum Multistage Perfect Matching problem (Max-MPM), where we seek to maximize the total profit of all selected edges plus the total number of non-exchanged edges. We show that Max-MPM is also APX-hard, but admits a constant factor approximation algorithm for any number of time steps.

Throughput Maximization in the Speed-Scaling Setting

Authors: Eric Angel, Evripidis Bampis, and Vincent Chau

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 25, 31st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2014)


Abstract
We are given a set of n jobs and a single processor that can vary its speed dynamically. Each job J_j is characterized by its processing requirement (work) p_j, its release date r_j and its deadline d_j. We are also given a budget of energy E and we study the scheduling problem of maximizing the throughput (i.e. the number of jobs that are completed on time). While the preemptive energy minimization problem has been solved in polynomial time [Yao et al., FOCS'95], the complexity of the problem of maximizing the throughput remained open until now. We answer partially this question by providing a dynamic programming algorithm that solves the problem in pseudo-polynomial time. While our result shows that the problem is not strongly NP-hard, the question of whether the problem can be solved in polynomial time remains a challenging open question. Our algorithm can also be adapted for solving the weighted version of the problem where every job is associated with a weight w_j and the objective is the maximization of the sum of the weights of the jobs that are completed on time.

Energy Efficient Scheduling and Routing via Randomized Rounding

Authors: Evripidis Bampis, Alexander Kononov, Dimitrios Letsios, Giorgio Lucarelli, and Maxim Sviridenko

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 24, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2013)


Abstract
We propose a unifying framework based on configuration linear programs and randomized rounding, for different energy optimization problems in the dynamic speed-scaling setting. We apply our framework to various scheduling and routing problems in heterogeneous computing and networking environments. We first consider the energy minimization problem of scheduling a set of jobs on a set of parallel speed-scalable processors in a fully heterogeneous setting. For both the preemptive-non-migratory and the preemptive-migratory variants, our approach allows us to obtain solutions of almost the same quality as for the homogeneous environment. By exploiting the result for the preemptive-non-migratory variant, we are able to improve the best known approximation ratio for the single processor non-preemptive problem. Furthermore, we show that our approach allows to obtain a constant-factor approximation algorithm for the power-aware preemptive job shop scheduling problem. Finally, we consider the min-power routing problem where we are given a network modeled by an undirected graph and a set of uniform demands that have to be routed on integral routes from their sources to their destinations so that the energy consumption is minimized. We improve the best known approximation ratio for this problem.
