On the Worst-case Performance of the Sum-of-Squares Algorithm for Bin Packing
Abstract
The Sum of Squares algorithm for bin packing was defined in [2] and studied in great detail in [1], where it was proved that its worst case performance ratio is at most 3. In this note, we improve the asymptotic worst case bound to 2.7777...
