The $b$-matching problem is an allocation problem where the vertices on the left-hand side of a bipartite graph, referred to as servers, may be matched multiple times. In the setting with stochastic rewards, an assignment between an…
There is a rising interest for studying the online benchmark as an alternative of the classical offline benchmark in online stochastic settings. Ezra, Feldman, Gravin, and Tang (SODA 2023) introduced the notion of order-competitive ratio,…
The $k$-Server Problem covers plenty of resource allocation scenarios, and several variations have been studied extensively for decades. We present a model generalizing the $k$-Server Problem by preferences of the requests, where the…
We study the online problem of reading articles that are listed in an aggregated form in a dynamic stream, e.g., in news feeds, as abbreviated social media posts, or in the daily update of new articles on arXiv. In such a context, the brief…
For online resource allocation problems, we propose a new demand arrival model where the sequence of arrivals contains both an adversarial component and a stochastic one. Our model requires no demand forecasting; however, due to the…
This paper presents competitive algorithms for a novel class of online optimization problems with memory. We consider a setting where the learner seeks to minimize the sum of a hitting cost and a switching cost that depends on the previous…
In several applications of real-time matching of demand to supply in online marketplaces, the platform allows for some latency to batch the demand and improve the efficiency. Motivated by these applications, we study the optimal trade-off…
We study the problem of online facility location with delay. In this problem, a sequence of $n$ clients appear in the metric space, and they need to be eventually connected to some open facility. The clients do not have to be connected…
The setting for the online transportation problem is a metric space $M$, populated by $m$ parking garages of varying capacities. Over time cars arrive in $M$, and must be irrevocably assigned to a parking garage upon arrival in a way that…
We consider the reordering buffer problem on a line consisting of n equidistant points. We show that, for any constant delta, an (offline) algorithm that has a buffer (1-delta) k performs worse by a factor of Omega(log n) than an offline…
Collaborative recommendation is an information-filtering technique that attempts to present information items that are likely of interest to an Internet user. Traditionally, collaborative systems deal with situations with two types of…
Streaming data join is a critical process in the field of near-real-time data warehousing. For this purpose, an adaptive semi-stream join algorithm called CACHEJOIN (Cache Join) focusing non-uniform stream data is provided in the…
We consider online scheduling on multiple machines for jobs arriving one-by-one with the objective of minimizing the makespan. For any number of identical parallel or uniformly related machines, we provide a competitive-ratio approximation…
This paper studies an online cost optimization problem for distributed storage and access. The goal is to dynamically create and delete copies of data objects over time at geo-distributed servers to serve access requests and minimize the…
We give a very general and simple framework to incorporate predictions on requests for online covering problems in a rigorous and black-box manner. Our framework turns any online algorithm with competitive ratio $\rho(k, \cdot)$ depending…
Bipartite matching markets pair agents on one side of a market with agents, items, or contracts on the opposing side. Prior work addresses online bipartite matching markets, where agents arrive over time and are dynamically matched to a…
We study memory-bounded algorithms for the $k$-secretary problem. The algorithm of Kleinberg (SODA 2005) achieves an optimal competitive ratio of $1 - O(1/\sqrt{k})$, yet a straightforward implementation requires $\Omega(k)$ memory. Our…
We consider online algorithms with respect to the competitive ratio. Here, we investigate quantum and classical one-way automata with non-constant size of memory (streaming algorithms) as a model for online algorithms. We construct problems…
Many search engines such as Google, Bing & Yahoo! show search suggestions when users enter search phrases on their interfaces. These suggestions are meant to assist the user in finding what she wants quickly and also suggesting common…
We study an online hypergraph matching problem with delays, motivated by ridesharing applications. In this model, users enter a marketplace sequentially, and are willing to wait up to $d$ timesteps to be matched, after which they will leave…
