We present in this article a new approximation algorithm for scheduling a set of n independent rigid (meaning requiring a fixed number of processors) jobs on hierarchical parallel ...
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...
We present a decentralized market-based approach to resource allocation in a heterogeneous overlay network. The presented resource allocation strategy assigns overlay network reso...

In many optimization problems, one seeks to allocate a limited set of resources to a set of individuals with demands. Thus, such allocations can naturally be viewed as vectors, wi...
Motivated by the allocation problem facing publishers in display advertising we formulate the online assignment with forecast problem, a version of the online allocation problem w...
