Abstract

We study a multidimensional hyperbox packing with one active bin. The items (d-dimensional hyperboxes of edge length not greater than 1) arrive one by one. Each item must be packed online into a hypercube bin of edge 1 and $$90^{\circ }$$ 90 ∘ -rotations are allowed. If it is impossible to pack an item into an active bin, we close the bin and open a new active bin to pack that item. In this paper, we present a $$\ 3.5^d$$ 3 . 5 d -competitive as well as a $$\ 12\cdot 3^d$$ 12 · 3 d -competitive online d-dimensional hyperbox packing algorithm with one active bin.
