Abstract: In the d-dimensional hypercube bin packing problem, a given list of d-dimensional hypercubes must be packed into the smallest number of hypercube bins. Epstein and van Stee [SIAM J. Comput. 35 (2005)] showed that the asymptotic performance ratio ho of the online bounded space variant is Omega(logd) and O(d/logd), and conjectured that it is Theta(logd). We show that ho is in fact Theta(d/logd), using probabilistic arguments.
