Bounded space on-line variable-sized bin packing

Description
Summary:In this paper we consider the fc-bounded space on-line bin packing problem. Some efficient approximation algorithms are described and analyzed. Selecting either the smallest or the largest available bin size to start a new bin as items arrive turns out to yield a worst-case performance bound of 2. By packing large items into appropriate bins, an efficient approximation algorithm is derived from fc-bounded space on-line bin packing algorithms and its worst-case performance bounds is 1.7 for k > 3.
