We study the single-device Dynamic Storage Allocation (DSA) problem and multi-device Balancing DSA problem in this paper. The goal is to dynamically allocate the job into memory to minimize the usage of space without concurrency. The SRF problem is just a variant of DSA problem. Our results are as follows, • The NP-completeness for 2-SRF problem, 3-DSA problem, and DSA problem for jobs with agreeable deadlines. • An improved 3-competitive algorithm for jobs with agreeable deadlines on single-device DSA problem. A 4-competitive algorithm for jobs with agreeable deadlines on multi-device Balancing DSA problem. • Lower bounds for jobs with agreeable deadlines: any non-clairvoyant algorithm cannot be (2 - ε)-competitive and any clairvoyant algorithm cannot be (1.54 - ε)-competitive. • The first O(log L)-competitive algorithm for general jobs on multi-device Balancing DSA problem without any assumption. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.
