In this paper, we consider the parallel-machine scheduling problem with release dates and submodular rejection penalties. In this problem, we are givenmidentical parallel machines andnjobs. Each job has a processing time and a release date. A job is either rejected, in which case a rejection penalty has to be paid, or accepted and processed on one of themidentical parallel machines. The objective is to minimize the sum of the makespan of the accepted jobs and the rejection penalty of the rejected jobs which is determined by a submodular function. Our main work is to design a 2-approximation algorithm based on the primal-dual framework.
