The Relative Worst Order Ratio for On-Line Algorithms
[chapter]
2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Preserved Fulltext
Many of our results are consistent with those previously obtained with the competitive ratio or the competitive ratio on accommodating sequences, but new separations and easier proofs are found. ...
The new ratio is used to compare on-line algorithms directly by taking the ratio of their performances on their respective worst permutations of a worst-case sequence. ...
We would also like to thank the anonymous referees for useful comments, especially the referee who noted that the proof of Lemma 3.5 depended on Harmonic k using Next-Fit and asked about the possibility ...

We study an on-line bin packing problem. A xed number n of bins, possibly of di erent sizes, are given. The items arrive on-line, and the goal is to pack as many items as possible. ...
It is known that there exists a legal packing of the whole sequence in the n bins. We consider fair algorithms that reject an item, only if it does not t in the empty space of any bin. ...

We make the case that when guarantees are needed, even under restricted input sequences, dual Harmonic is preferable. ...
Bin covering is a dual version of classic bin packing. Thus, the goal is to cover as many bins as possible, where covering a bin means packing items of total size at least one in the bin. ...
Introduction Bin covering [2] is a dual version of classic bin packing. As usual, bins have size one and items with sizes between zero and one must be packed. ...

In this paper, we present an online bin packing algorithm with asymptotic competitive ratio of 1.5813. This is the first improvement in fifteen years and reduces the gap to the lower bound by 15%. ...

We prove new lower bounds for suitable competitive ratio measures of two relaxed online packing problems: online removable multiple knapsack, and a recently introduced online minimum peak appointment scheduling ...

We study the simplest possible online algorithm Dual Next-Fit, which packs all arriving items into the same bin until it is filled and then proceeds with the next bin in the same manner. ...
Finally, we prove that the expected competitive ratio equals, for a large class of distributions, the random-order ratio, which is the expected competitive ratio when adversarially chosen items arrive ...
Similarly we show that for proving a lower bound on the random order ratio of DNF it suffices to consider sequences of items that can be packed with waste zero. ...

We analyze the problem of packing squares in an online fashion: Given a semi-infinite strip of width 1 and an unknown sequence of squares of side length in [0,1] that arrive from above, one at a time. ...
Hence, all negative results for the bin packing problem, e.g., NP-hardness and lower bounds on the competitive ratio also hold for the strip packing problem; see [15] for a survey on (online) bin packing ...
