Abstract

We revisit the batched bin packing problem. In this model, items come in K consecutive batches, and the items of the earlier batches must be packed without any knowledge of later batches. We give the first approximation algorithm for the case $$K=2$$ K = 2 , with tight asymptotic approximation ratio of 1.5833, while the known lower bound of the model is 1.378. With the application of this result, we are also able to provide an improved algorithm for the recently defined graph-bin packing problem in a special case, where we improve the upper bound from 3 to 2.5833.
