| Abstract | This paper examines two variants of strip packing: when the rectangles to be placed have precedence constraints and when the rectangles have release times. Strip packing can be used to model scheduling problems in which tasks require a contiguous subset of identical resources that are arranged in a linear topology. The particular variants studied here are motivated by scheduling tasks for dynamically reconfigurable Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) comprised of an array of computing columns. Each column is a computing resource and the array of columns forms the linear topology of resources. We assume that the given FPGA has K columns, where K is a fixed positive integer, and each task occupies a contiguous subset of these columns. For the case in which tasks have precedence constraints, we give an O(log n) approximation, where n is the number of tasks. We then consider the special case in which all the rectangles have uniform height and reduce it to the resource constrained scheduling studied by Garey, Graham, Johnson and Yao, thereby extending their asymptotic results to our special case problem. We also give an absolute 3-approximation for this special case problem. For strip packing with release times, we provide an asymptotic polynomial time (1 + ε)- approximation scheme. We make the standard assumption that the rectangles have height at most 1. In addition, we also require widths to be in [1 |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
