On-line scheduling with non-crossing constraints
We consider the problem of on-line scheduling with non-crossing constraints. The objective is to minimize the latest completion time. We provide optimal competitive ratio heuristi...

Competitive Analysis of Distributed Algorithms
Abstract. Most applications of competitive analysis have involved online problems where a candidate on-line algorithm must compete on some input sequence against an optimal o -line...

A Competitive Analysis for Retransmission Timeout
Protocols that provide reliable communicationon top of a network that can lose packets rely on periodically retransmitting packets. The choice of retransmission timeout critically...

Competitive Maintenance of Minimum Spanning Trees in Dynamic Graphs
Abstract. We consider the problem of maintaining a minimum spanning tree within a graph with dynamically changing edge weights. An online algorithm is confronted with an input sequ...

Optimal Power-Down Strategies
We consider the problem of selecting threshold times to transition a device to low-power sleep states during an idle period. The two-state case in which there is a single active a...
