Abstract
The one-dimensional on-line bin-packing problem is considered, A simple
O
(1)-space and
O
(
n
)-time algorithm, called HARMONIC
M
, is presented. It is shown that this algorithm can achieve a worst-case performance ratio of less than 1.692, which is better than that of the
O
(
n
)-space and
O
(
n
log
n
)-time algorithm FIRST FIT. Also shown is that 1.691 … is a lower bound for
all
0
(1)-space on-line bin-packing algorithms. Finally a revised version of HARMONIC
M
, an
O
(
n
)-space and
O
(
n
)- time algorithm, is presented and is shown to have a worst-case performance ratio of less than 1.636.
