Scheduling to Minimize Power Consumption using Submodular Functions

We develop logarithmic approximation algorithms for extremely general formulations of multiprocessor multi-interval offline task scheduling to minimize power usage. Here each processor has an arbitrary specified power consumption to be turned on for each possible time interval, and each job has a sp...
