The abstract follows.
This talk discusses the parameterized complexity of scheduling problems,
assuming precedence constraints, time windows and typed tasks resource
constraints. We recall the usual parameters used for scheduling problems
and focus on a parameter suitable for problems with time windows, the
pathwitdth of the underlying interval graph. We present three results
involving this parameter. First we show a fixed parameter tractable
(FPT) algorithm for a scheduling problem with unit processing times.
Then, a para-NP-Hardness result assuming arbitrary processing times and
finally we outline a FPT algorithm for this problem by considering two
parameters. Authors: Claire Hanen and Alix Munier-Kordon.

The next talk in our series will be:
Maria Elena Bruni (Uni of Calabria) | November 29 | Enhancing project
resilience: a risk-averse approach to payment delays.
