A Primal-Dual Randomized Algorithm for Weighted Paging
In the weighted paging problem there is a weight (cost) for fetching each page into the cache. We design a randomized O(log k)-competitive online algorithm for the weighted paging...

Online Conflict-Free Colorings for Hypergraphs
We provide a framework for online conflict-free coloring (CF-coloring) of any hypergraph. We use this framework to obtain an efficient randomized online algorithm for CF-coloring ...
