Are there any recent books on Online Algorithms? I know of only two books on the subject.

  • Online Computation and Competitive Analysis by Allan Borodin and Ran El-Yaniv: This is a classic but old book, and does not contain many recent advances in the field.
  • The Design of Competitive Online Algorithms via a Primal-Dual Approach by Niv Buchbinder and Joseph (Seffi) Naor: This is a new book and contains lot of recent results. However, it's scope is limited to LP based primal-dual algorithms.

Please list here all the books on Online Algorithms that you may know. If there are any books freely available on the web, that will be great.

  • $\begingroup$ have noticed on tcs.se over ~1yr a seeming uptick in interest in online algorithms for eg misc std graph problems, seems to tie in with trends around "big data" (& cloud algorithms etc). & it would seem there are not great refs on the subj so far, the coverage seems more scattered right now... in many cases taking efficient offline algorithms & making/adapting them to online scenarios is an extremely nontrivial/advanced area... maybe early signs of a paradigm shift in progress? $\endgroup$

This might be of some relevance http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~arielpro/15896s15/docs/paper13b.pdf Survey by Aranyak Mehta (Google Research)
