Abstract

We study online nonclairvoyant speed scaling to minimize total flow time plus energy. We first consider the traditional model where the power function is P(s) = sα. We give a nonclairvoyant algorithm that is shown to be O(α3)-competitive. We then show an Ω(α 1/3-∈) lower bound on the competitive ratio of any nonclairvoyant algorithm. We also show that there are power functions for which no nonclairvoyant algorithm can be O(1)-competitive. © H.L. Chan, J. Edmonds, T.WL. am, L.K. Lee, A. Marchetti-Spaccamela, and K. Pruhs.
