We present hardness and approximation results for the problem of scheduling
n
independent jobs on
m
identical parallel machines subject to a migration delay
d
so as to minimize the makespan. We give a sharp threshold on the value of
d
for which the complexity of the problem changes from polynomial time solvable to NP-hard. We give initial results supporting a conjecture that there always exists an optimal schedule in which at most
m
– 1 jobs migrate. Further, we give a
O
(
n
) time
O
(1+1/log
2
n
)-approximation algorithm for
m
= 2, and show that there is a polynomial time approximation scheme for arbitrary
m
.
