Abstract:This paper initiates the study of online algorithms for the maintaining a maximum weight b-matching problem, a generalization of maximum weight matching where each node has at most b ≥ 1 adjacent matching edges. The problem is motivated by emerging optical technologies which allow to enhance datacenter networks with reconfigurable matchings, providing direct connectivity between frequently communicating racks. These additional links may improve network performance, by leveraging spatial and temporal structure … Show more
