An Improved Competitive Algorithm for Reordering Buffer Management
We design and analyze an on-line reordering buffer management algorithm with improved O log k log log k competitive ratio for non-uniform costs, where k is the buffer size. This i...

Reordering buffers for general metric spaces
In the reordering buffer problem, we are given an input sequence of requests for service each of which corresponds to a point in a metric space. The cost of serving the requests h...

Improving Parallel-Disk Buffer Management using Randomized Writeback
We address the problems of I/O scheduling and buffer management for general reference strings in a parallel I/O system. Using the standard parallel disk model withD disks and a sh...

The Power of Reordering for Online Minimum Makespan Scheduling
In the classic minimum makespan scheduling problem, we are given an input sequence of jobs with processing times. A scheduling algorithm has to assign the jobs to m parallel machi...

Preemptive Online Scheduling with Reordering
We consider online preemptive scheduling of jobs, arriving one by one, on m identical parallel machines. A buffer of a fixed size K > 0, which assists in partial reordering of...
