In this paper, we study an online make-to-order variant of the classical joint replenishment problem (JRP) that has been studied extensively over the years and plays a fundamental...
Abstract. Blockwise access to data is a central theme in the design of efficient external memory (EM) algorithms. A second important issue, when more than one disk is present, is f...

The best known method to find exact or at least -approximate solutions to polynomial programming problems is the spatial Branch-and-Bound algorithm, which rests on computing lower...
We consider the online version of the maximum vertex disjoint path problem when the underlying network is a tree. In this problem, a sequence of requests arrives in an online fash...
: A chain or n-link is a sequence of n links whose lengths are fixed and are joined together from their endpoints, free to turn about their endpoints, which act as joints. "Ru...
