Line 17:
The '''LPT algorithm''' (Longest Processing Time First), also called [[greedy number partitioning]], sorts the jobs by their length, longest first, and then assigns them to the processor with the earliest end time so far. For ''identical'' machines, it asymptotically attains at most 4/3 of the maximum completion time. Iit has good asymptotic convergence properties even for ''uniform'' machines.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Frenk|first=J. B. G.|last2=Rinnooy Kan|first2=A. H.
