Abstract

We present an improved online algorithm for coloring interval graphs with bandwidth. This problem has recently been studied by Adamy and Erlebach and a 195-competitive online strategy has been presented. We improve this by presenting a 10-competitive strategy. To achieve this result, we use variants of an optimal online coloring algorithm due to Kierstead and Trotter.
