Comparing online algorithms for bin packing problems
The relative worst-order ratio is a measure of the quality of online algorithms. In contrast to the competitive ratio, this measure compares two online algorithms directly instead of using an intermediate comparison with an optimal offline algorithm. In this paper, we apply the relative worst-order ratio to online algorithms for several common variants of the bin packing problem. We mainly cons...
متن کاملOnline algorithms with advice for bin packing and scheduling problems
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 problems, to arbitrarily approach a competitive ratio of 1 with only a constant number of bits of advice per request. For the bin packing problem, we give an online algorithm with advice that is (1 + ε)competitive and uses...
متن کاملOnline algorithms with advice for the dual bin packing problem
This paper studies the problem of maximizing the number of items packed into n bins, known as the dual bin packing problem, in the advice per request model. In general, no online algorithm has a constant competitive ratio for this problem. An online algorithm with 1 bit of advice per request is shown to be 3/2-competitive. Next, for 0 < ε < 1/2, an online algorithm with advice that is (1/(1− ε)...
متن کاملOnline Colored Bin Packing
In the Colored Bin Packing problem a sequence of items of sizes up to 1 arrives to be packed into bins of unit capacity. Each item has one of c ≥ 2 colors and an additional constraint is that we cannot pack two items of the same color next to each other in the same bin. The objective is to minimize the number of bins. In the important special case when all items have size zero, we characterize ...
متن کاملOnline Stochastic Bin Packing
Motivated by the problem of packing Virtual Machines on physical servers in the cloud, we study the problem of one-dimensional online stochastic bin packing. Items with sizes sampled independent and identically (i.i.d.) from a distribution with integral support arrive as a stream and must be packed on arrival in bins of size B, also an integer. The size of an item is known when it arrives and t...
