Abstract

The applicability of the accommodating function, a relatively new measure for the quality of on-line algorithms, is extended. If a limited amount n of some resource is available, the accommodating function A(驴) is the competitive ratio when input sequences are restricted to those for which the amount 驴n of resources suffices for an optimal off-line algorithm. The accommodating function was originally used only for 驴 驴 1. We focus on 驴
