This paper addresses the issue of computing the asymptotic worst-case of lower bounds for the Bin Packing Problem. We introduce a general result that allows to bound the asymptoti...

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...
The problem of on-line bin packing restricted to instances with only two item sizes (known in advance) has a well-known lower bound of 4/3 for its asymptotic competitive ratio. We...
Following recent interest in the study of computer science problems in a game theoretic setting, we consider the well known bin packing problem where the items are controlled by se...
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...
