Popis: | We introduce an online relocation problem on a graph, in which a player that walks around the vertices makes decisions on whether to relocate mobile resources, while not knowing the future requests. We call it Carrying Umbrellas. This paper gives a necessary and sucient condition under which a competitive algorithm exists. We also describe an online algorithm and analyze its competitive ratio. |
