Forwarding Packets Greedily on the Line

Joan Boyar, Lene M. Favrholdt, Kim S. Larsen +2

We consider the problem of forwarding packets arriving online with their destinations in a line network. In each time step, each router can forward one packet along the edge to its…

The Buffer Minimization Problem for Scheduling Flow Jobs with Conflicts

Niklas Haas, Sören Schmitt, Rob van Stee

We consider the online buffer minimization in multiprocessor systems with conflicts problem (in short, the buffer minimization problem) in the recently introduced flow model. In an…

Minimizing the Weighted Makespan with Restarts on a Single Machine

Aflatoun Amouzandeh, Klaus Jansen, Lis Pirotton +2

We consider the problem of minimizing the weighted makespan on a single machine with restarts. Restarts are similar to preemptions but weaker: a job can be interrupted, but then it…

Improved online load balancing with known makespan

Martin Böhm, Matej Lieskovský, Sören Schmitt +2

We break the barrier of for the problem of online load balancing with known makespan, also known as bin stretching. In this problem, identical machines and the optimal ma…

Improved Lower Bounds for Online Hypercube and Rectangle Packing

David Blitz, Sandy Heydrich, Rob van Stee +2

Packing a given sequence of items into as few bins as possible in an online fashion is a widely studied problem. We improve lower bounds for packing boxes into bins in two or more…

A Two-Phase Algorithm for Bin Stretching with Stretching Factor 1.5

Martin Böhm, Jiří Sgall, Rob van Stee +1

Online Bin Stretching is a semi-online variant of bin packing in which the algorithm has to use the same number of bins as an optimal packing, but is allowed to slightly overpack t…

Beating the Harmonic lower bound for online bin packing

Sandy Heydrich, Rob van Stee

In the online bin packing problem, items of sizes in (0,1] arrive online to be packed into bins of size 1. The goal is to minimize the number of used bins. In this paper, we presen…

Online Bin Stretching with Three Bins

Martin Böhm, Jiří Sgall, Rob van Stee +1

Online Bin Stretching is a semi-online variant of bin packing in which the algorithm has to use the same number of bins as an optimal packing, but is allowed to slightly overpack t…

Online Algorithms with Advice for Bin Packing and Scheduling Problems

Marc P. Renault, Adi Rosén, Rob van Stee

We consider the setting of online computation with advice, and study the bin packing problem and a number of scheduling problems. We show that it is possible, for any of these prob…

A unified approach to truthful scheduling on related machines

Leah Epstein, Asaf Levin, Rob van Stee

We present a unified framework for designing deterministic monotone polynomial time approximation schemes (PTAS's) for a wide class of scheduling problems on uniformly related mach…
