报告摘要：

    This seminar will review classical results for task graph scheduling，where the objective is to minimize execution time. Then we deal with a series of problem examples，and use them to illustrate algorithms that aim at throughput optimization, resource selection, power management and multi-criteria optimization. There will be more examples than theorems in the lecture!
