This books covers the analysis and development of online algorithms involving exact optimization and heuristic techniques, and their application to solve two real life problems. The first problem is concerned with a complex technical system: a special carousel based high-speed storage system – Rotastore. The second problem originates in the health sector and leads to a vehicle routing problem.
