Stochastic scheduling

Stochastic scheduling is a concept in operations research and computer science that deals with scheduling problems in environments where there is uncertainty or randomness in the durations of tasks, arrival times, or other parameters. Unlike deterministic scheduling, where all parameters are known with certainty, stochastic scheduling incorporates variability and probabilistic models to make decisions that optimize certain performance measures, such as minimizing completion time, maximizing resource utilization, or achieving deadlines.
