Focusing on the ordinal scheduling problem on a parallel machine system, we discuss the background of ordinal scheduling and the motivation of ordinal algorithms. In addition, for the ordinal scheduling problem on identical parallel machines with the objective to maximize the minimum machine load, we then give two asymptotically optimal algorithm classes which have worst-case ratios very close to the upper bound of the problem for any given m. These results greatly improve the results proposed by He Yong and Tan Zhiyi in 2002.
