Abstract: We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the makespan on a single machine with step-improving job processing times around a common critical date. For this problem we give an NP-hardness proof, a fast pseudo-polynomial time algorithm, an FPTAS, and an on-line algorithm with best possible competitive ratio.
