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...
ct The average case analysis of algorithms usually assumes independent, identical distributions for the inputs. In [?], Kenyon introduced the random-order ratio, a new average case...
We introduce the First Fit Matching Periods algorithm for rate-monotonic multiprocessor scheduling of periodic tasks with implicit deadlines and show that it yields asymptotically...
In competitive analysis, we usually do not put any restrictions on the computational complexity of online algorithms, although efficient algorithms are preferred. Thus if such an...
