We prove that the First Fit bin packing algorithm is stable under the input distribution U{k - 2, k} for all k 3, settling an open question from the recent survey by Coffman, Gar...
A fundamental facility location problem is to choose the location of facilities, such as industrial plants and warehouses, to minimize the cost of satisfying the demand for some c...
We consider the problem of implementing nger search trees on the pointer machine, i.e., how to maintain a sorted list such that searching for an element x, starting the search at ...
We present the first polylog-competitive online algorithm for the general multicast admission control and routing problem in the throughput model. The ratio of the number of reque...
