  • Abstract
    This paper presents a generalized formulation of precedence constrained scheduling where the number of dependent tasks which are to be scheduled before the task itself can be scheduled is a variable. This formulation is capable of modeling a number of scheduling and path-finding problems. An algorithm is presented to solve the problem of finding the minimum time schedule. Variants are discussed. One simple variant is shown to be NP-Complete
