I need to understand why if a scheduling algorithm A minimizes maximum lateness, then A is optimal (it finds a feasible schedule, if one exists).
I searched on the web for a long time, but without any success.
Can you tell me which ingredients I need to prove that please?
EDIT
The viceversa is not true: if A is optimal, it can happen that A is not able to minimize the maximum lateness.
