In this paper, we consider the scheduling problem on two identical machines with objective to minimize the sum of the $l_{p}$ norm of every machine's load. We present the worst-case ratio of $DSL(l)$ for any integer $l$, here $DSL(l)$ first assigns the $l-1$ largest jobs optimally, then assigns the remaining jobs by $LS$ rule. It follows that $DSL(l)$ is an all-norm $\frac{l+2}{l+1}$ -approximation algorithm. Improved tight bound is given for $l=7$ in the $l_{2}$ norm.
Keywords: $l_p$ norm., parallel machine, design and analysis of algorithms, Scheduling.
