Improved Algorithms for Online Rent Minimization Problem ...

We consider the Online Rent Minimization problem, where online jobs with release times, deadlines, and processing times must be scheduled on machines that can be rented for a fixed length period of $T$. The objective is to minimize the number of machine rents. This problem generalizes the Online Machine Minimization problem where machines can be rented for an infinite period, and both problems have an asymptotically optimal competitive ratio of $O(\log(p_{\max}/p_{\min}))$ for general processing times, where $p_{\max}$ and $p_{\min}$ are the maximum and minimum processing times respectively. However, for small values of $p_{\max}/p_{\min}$, a better competitive ratio can be achieved by assuming unit-size jobs. Under this assumption, Devanur et al. (2014) gave an optimal $e$-competitive algorithm for Online Machine Minimization, and Chen and Zhang (2022) gave a $(3e+7)\approx 15.16$-competitive algorithm for Online Rent Minimization. In this paper, we significantly improve the competitive ratio of the Online Rent Minimization problem under unit size to $6$, by using a clean oracle-based online algorithm framework.
