In the two-dimensional single large object placement problem, we are given a rectangular master surface which has to be cut into a set of smaller rectangular items, with the aim o...
We consider the problem of storing a large file on a remote and unreliable server. To verify that the file has not been corrupted, a user could store a small private (randomized...
We consider the problem of maximizingthe number of jobs completed by their deadlinein an online single processor system where the jobs are preemptable and have release times. So i...
The standard so-called experts algorithms are methods for utilizing a given set of “experts” to make good choices in a sequential decision-making problem. In the standard setti...
