文摘Scheduling chain combination is the core of chain-based scheduling algorithms, the speed of which determines the overall performance of corresponding scheduling algorithm. However, backtracking is used in general combination algorithms to traverse the whole search space which may introduce redundant operations, so performance of the combination algorithm is generally poor. A fast scheduling chain combination algorithm which avoids redundant operations by skipping “incompatible” steps of scheduling chains and using a stack to remember the scheduling state is presented in this paper to overcome the problem. Experimental results showed that it can improve the performance of scheduling algorithms by up to 15 times. By further omitting unnecessary operations, a fast algorithm of minimum combination length prediction is developed, which can improve the speed by up to 10 times.
