A Knapsack Secretary Problem with Applications
We consider situations in which a decision-maker with a fixed budget faces a sequence of options, each with a cost and a value, and must select a subset of them online so as to ma...

Scheduling with Precedence Constraints of Low Fractional Dimension
Abstract. We consider the single machine scheduling problem to minimize the average weighted completion time under precedence constrains. Improving on the various 2-approximation a...
