Abstract In this paper, we consider single-processor scheduling with time restrictions. Given a fixed integer B ≥ 2 and a set of jobs, we need to schedule the jobs sequentially on a single processor subject to the following B -constraint. For any real x , no unit time interval [ x , x + 1 ) is allowed to intersect more than B jobs. We show that there exists a permutation of the jobs which can be processed within a factor of 5 4 of the optimum (plus an additional small constant) when B ≥ 5 and this factor is best possible. When B = 3 , 4 , the corresponding factor equals B B - 1 . Furthermore, we present an asymptotically optimal permutation for B = 2 . The results for B ≥ 4 improve the previous work on this problem.
