离散型竹园修剪问题的12/7-近似算法
A 12/7-approximation algorithm for the discrete Bamboo Garden Trimming problem
摘要:
研究了离散型竹园修剪问题,其中给定n根不同生长速率的竹子。每天结束时,一个人可以把一根竹子砍到零高度。BGT的目标是制作一个永久的切割时间表,以便最高的竹子的高度最小化。在这里,我们通过设计12/7-近似算法来改进当前的最佳近似保证。这个结果是基于减少风车调度问题。我们表明,保证12/7基本上是最好的,我们可以希望,如果我们的算法是基于这种类型的减少。
英文摘要:
We study the discrete Bamboo Garden Trimming problem (BGT), where we are given n bamboos with different growth rates. At the end of each day, one can cut down one bamboo to height zero. The goal in BGT is to make a perpetual schedule of cuts such that the height of the tallest bamboo ever is minimized. Here, we improve the current best approximation guarantee by designing a 12/7-approximation algorithm. This result is based on a reduction to the Pinwheel Scheduling problem. We show that a guarantee of 12/7 is essentially the best we can hope for if our algorithm is based on this type of reduction.
