We study the Min-Weighted Sum Bin Packing problem, a variant of the classical Bin Packing problem in which items have a weight, and each item induces a cost equal to its weight multiplied by the index of the bin in which it is packed. This…

This paper studies the online vector bin packing (OVBP) problem and the related problem of online hypergraph coloring (OHC). Firstly, we use a double counting argument to prove an upper bound of the competitive ratio of $FirstFit$ for OVBP.…

We study a generalization of the advice complexity model of online computation in which the advice is provided by an untrusted source. Our objective is to quantify the impact of untrusted advice so as to design and analyze online algorithms…

In this paper we develop a finite blocklength version of the Output Statistics of Random Binning (OSRB) framework. The framework is shown to be optimal in the point-to-point case. New second order regions for broadcast channel and wiretap…

We consider algorithms to schedule packets with values and deadlines in a size-bounded buffer. At any time, the buffer can store at most B packets. Packets arrive over time. Each packet has a non-negative value and an integer deadline. In…

We introduce the Online Unbounded Knapsack Problem with Removal, a variation of the well-known Online Knapsack Problem. Items, each with a weight and value, arrive online and an algorithm must decide on whether or not to pack them into a…

A 3D flexible bin packing problem (3D-FBPP) arises from the process of warehouse packing in e-commerce. An online customer's order usually contains several items and needs to be packed as a whole before shipping. In particular, 5% of tens…

This paper studies large scale instances of a fairly general arc-routing problem as well as incorporate practical constraints in particular coming from the scheduling problem of the winter road maintenance (e.g. different priorities for and…

This paper is motivated by the vision of more efficient packet classification mechanisms that self-optimize in a demand-aware manner. At the heart of our approach lies a self-adjusting linear list data structure, where unlike in the classic…

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…

Recently, Renault (2016) studied the dual bin packing problem in the per-request advice model of online algorithms. He showed that given $O(1/\epsilon)$ advice bits for each input item allows approximating the dual bin packing problem…

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…

In this paper, we study the {\em green bin packing} (GBP) problem where $\beta \ge 0$ and $G \in [0, 1]$ are two given values as part of the input. The energy consumed by a bin is $\max \{0, \beta (x-G) \}$ where $x$ is the total size of…

We consider the stochastic extensible bin packing problem (SEBP) in which $n$ items of stochastic size are packed into $m$ bins of unit capacity. In contrast to the classical bin packing problem, the number of bins is fixed and they can be…

We propose a Deep Reinforcement Learning (Deep RL) algorithm for solving the online 3D bin packing problem for an arbitrary number of bins and any bin size. The focus is on producing decisions that can be physically implemented by a robotic…

We explore the fundamental limits of distributed balls-into-bins algorithms. We present an adaptive symmetric algorithm that achieves a bin load of two in log* n+O(1) communication rounds using O(n) messages in total. Larger bin loads can…

We study frequency allocation in wireless networks. A wireless network is modeled by an undirected graph, with vertices corresponding to cells. In each vertex we have a certain number of requests, and each of those requests must be assigned…

Clique clustering is the problem of partitioning the vertices of a graph into disjoint clusters, where each cluster forms a clique in the graph, while optimizing some objective function. In online clustering, the input graph is given one…

We present a new generalization of the extensible bin packing with unequal bin sizes problem. In our generalization the cost of exceeding the bin size depends on the index of the bin and not only on the amount in which the size of the bin…

Packing, initially utilized in the pre-training phase, is an optimization technique designed to maximize hardware resource efficiency by combining different training sequences to fit the model's maximum input length. Although it has…
