In the Online Machine Covering problem jobs, defined by their sizes, arrive one by one and have to be assigned to $m$ parallel and identical machines, with the goal of maximizing the load of the least-loaded machine. In this work, we study…
Online models that allow recourse are highly effective in situations where classical models are too pessimistic. One such problem is the online machine covering problem on identical machines. In this setting, jobs arrive one by one and must…
The 2D Online Bin Packing is a fundamental problem in Computer Science and the determination of its asymptotic competitive ratio has attracted great research attention. In a long series of papers, the lower bound of this ratio has been…
Makespan minimization on identical machines is a fundamental problem in online scheduling. The goal is to assign a sequence of jobs to $m$ identical parallel machines so as to minimize the maximum completion time of any job. Already in the…
We consider TSP with time windows and service time. In this problem we receive a sequence of requests for a service at nodes in a metric space and a time window for each request. The goal of the online algorithm is to maximize the number of…
We improve the lower bound on the asymptotic competitive ratio of any online algorithm for bin packing to above 1.54278. We demonstrate for the first time the advantage of branching and the applicability of full adaptivity in the design of…
In the online 2-bounded auction problem, we have a collection of items represented as nodes in a graph and bundles of size two represented by edges. Agents are presented sequentially, each with a random weight function over the bundles. The…
In this study, we investigated several online and semi-online scheduling problems on two hierarchical machines with a common due date to maximize the total early work. For the pure online case, we designed an optimal online algorithm with a…
In this paper, we consider the online vertex-weighted bipartite matching problem in the random arrival model. We consider the generalization of the RANKING algorithm for this problem introduced by Huang, Tang, Wu, and Zhang (TALG 2019), who…
We present a new approach, called a lazy matching, to the problem of on-line matching on bipartite graphs. Imagine that one side of a graph is given and the vertices of the other side are arriving on-line. Originally, incoming vertex is…
We study the online clustering problem where data items arrive in an online fashion. The algorithm maintains a clustering of data items into similarity classes. Upon arrival of v, the relation between v and previously arrived items is…
In the weighted bipartite matching problem, the goal is to find a maximum-weight matching in a bipartite graph with nonnegative edge weights. We consider its online version where the first vertex set is known beforehand, but vertices of the…
In the online non-metric variant of the facility location problem, there is a given graph consisting of a set $F$ of facilities (each with a certain opening cost), a set $C$ of potential clients, and weighted connections between them. The…
Our work introduces the effect of supply/demand imbalances into the literature on online matching with stochastic rewards in bipartite graphs. We provide a parameterized definition that characterizes instances as over- or undersupplied (or…
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 present an online bin packing algorithm with asymptotic…
In the d-dimensional online bin packing problem, d-dimensional cubes of positive sizes no larger than 1 are presented one by one to be assigned to positions in d-dimensional unit cube bins. In this work, we provide improved upper bounds on…
Online algorithms with predictions is a popular and elegant framework for bypassing pessimistic lower bounds in competitive analysis. In this model, online algorithms are supplied with future predictions, and the goal is for the competitive…
Online Bipartite Matching with random user arrival is a fundamental problem in the online advertisement ecosystem. Over the last 30 years, many algorithms and impossibility results have been developed for this problem. In particular, the…
In the bounded delay buffer management problem unit size packets arrive online to be sent over a network link. The objective is to maximize the total weight of packets sent before their deadline. In this paper we are interested in the…
We study generalizations of online bipartite matching in which each arriving vertex (customer) views a ranked list of offline vertices (products) and matches to (purchases) the first one they deem acceptable. The number of products that the…
