Algorithm 1

Pseudocode of function H(⋅).

(1)	Generate a square latency matrix V from W and M.
(2)	In each row, subtract all entries by the smallest row entry.
(3)	In each column, subtract all entries by the smallest column entry.
(4)	Find the minimum number of rows and columns that cover all zero entries.
(5)	If , the optimal solution is found.
(6)	If , Find the smallest entry in the matrix, Subtract all uncovered rows by , Add all covered columns by , Return to Line (4).
