Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Algorithm TAKEHEED; Algorithm 2 Algorithm PLUCK(T, v, q); Algorithm 3 Algorithm SELECTHEAVIESTCHILD(T, v, q)
Open Source Code Yes For all algorithms above we used our own implementation2. [footnote] 2https://github.com/matteojug/Online-Facility-Location-with-Multiple-Advice
Open Datasets Yes For real real-world datasets, we consider Gowalla and Brightkite, from the SNAP Dataset Collection [Leskovec and Krevl, 2014], and Uber [Five Thirty Eight, 2015].
Dataset Splits No The paper describes how input sequences and advice were generated from daily data and time windows, but it does not specify explicit training, validation, or test dataset splits in terms of percentages or counts for model reproduction.
Hardware Specification No All experiments ran on a desktop computer. This statement is too general and does not provide specific hardware details like CPU, GPU models, or memory.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using 'our own implementation' but does not specify any software names with version numbers (e.g., programming languages, libraries, frameworks, or solvers with their versions).
Experiment Setup Yes The facility cost was determined in such a way that THEBASELINE opened a number of facilities between 1% 10% of the number of input points. For Fotakis and ABUV algorithms, which are parametrized, we tried different values for the parameters and report here only the best ones. The mixing algorithm has a parameter γ with which one can give more weight to one of the two components to be mixed. We show the outcome for γ = 1.75 which gave best results.
