Abstract: We present the first optimal randomized online algorithms
for the TCP acknowledgment problem [5] and the Bahncard
problem [7]. These problems are well-known to be generalizations
of the classical online ski rental problem, however,
they appeared to be harder. In this paper, we demonstrate
that a number of online algorithms which have optimal competitive
ratios of e=(e \Gamma 1), including these, are fundamentally
no more complex than ski rental. Our results also suggest
a clear paradigm for... (Update)
