In the Demand Strip Packing problem (DSP), we are given a time interval and a collection of tasks, each characterized by a processing time and a demand for a given resource (such as electricity, computational power, etc.). A feasible…

We study three fundamental three-dimensional (3D) geometric packing problems: 3D (Geometric) Bin Packing (3D-BP), 3D Strip Packing (3D-SP), and Minimum Volume Bounding Box (3D-MVBB), where given a set of 3D (rectangular) cuboids, the goal…

The cloud computing industry has grown rapidly over the last decade, and with this growth there is a significant increase in demand for compute resources. Demand is manifested in the form of Virtual Machine (VM) requests, which need to be…

This paper presents theoretical and practical results for the bin packing problem with scenarios, a generalization of the classical bin packing problem which considers the presence of uncertain scenarios, of which only one is realized. For…

We explore approximation algorithms for the $d$-dimensional geometric bin packing problem ($d$BP). Caprara (MOR 2008) gave a harmonic-based algorithm for $d$BP having an asymptotic approximation ratio (AAR) of $T_{\infty}^{d-1}$ (where…

We settle the pseudo-polynomial complexity of the Demand Strip Packing (DSP) problem: Given a strip of fixed width and a set of items with widths and heights, the items must be placed inside the strip with the objective of minimizing the…

Problems involving the efficient arrangement of simple objects, as captured by bin packing and makespan scheduling, are fundamental tasks in combinatorial optimization. These are well understood in the traditional online and offline cases,…

Multidimensional packing problems generalize the classical packing problems such as Bin Packing, Multiprocessor Scheduling by allowing the jobs to be $d$-dimensional vectors. While the approximability of the scalar problems is well…

We study the Partial Degree Bounded Edge Packing (PDBEP) problem introduced in [5] by Zhang. They have shown that this problem is NP-Hard even for uniform degree constraint. They also presented approximation algorithms for the case when all…

We consider convex optimization problems formulated using dynamic programming equations. Such problems can be solved using the Dual Dynamic Programming algorithm combined with the Level 1 cut selection strategy or the Territory algorithm to…

We consider the online vector bin packing problem where $n$ items specified by $d$-dimensional vectors must be packed in the fewest number of identical $d$-dimensional bins. Azar et al. (STOC'13) showed that for any online algorithm $A$,…

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 $1$…

We study an extension of the classical Bin Packing Problem, where each item consumes the bin capacity during a given time window that depends on the item itself. The problem asks for finding the minimum number of bins to pack all the items…

We consider several extensions of the fractional bin packing problem, a relaxation of the traditional bin packing problem where the objects may be split across multiple bins. In these extensions, we introduce load-balancing constraints…

In this work, we study the square min-sum bin packing problem (SMSBPP), where a list of square items has to be packed into indexed square bins of dimensions $1 \times 1$ with no overlap between the areas of the items. The bins are indexed…

In this work, we study two types of constraints on two-dimensional binary arrays. In particular, given $p,\epsilon>0$, we study (i) The $p$-bounded constraint: a binary vector of size $m$ is said to be $p$-bounded if its weight is at most…

The recently developed dynamic discretization discovery (DDD) is a powerful method that allows many time-dependent problems to become more tractable. While DDD has been applied to a variety of problems, one particular challenge has been to…

We introduce optimal algorithms for the problems of data placement (DP) and page placement (PP) in networks with a constant number of clients each of which has limited storage availability and issues requests for data objects. The objective…

While nowadays visual anomaly detection algorithms use deep neural networks to extract salient features from images, the high dimensionality of extracted features makes it difficult to apply those algorithms to large data with 1000s of…

We solve the Bin Packing problem in $O^*(2^k)$ time, where $k$ is the number of items less or equal to one third of the bin capacity. This parameter measures the distance from the polynomially solvable case of only large (i.e., greater than…
