The paper studies online algorithms for monotone submodular maximization with full knowledge of the future and unlimited computation. It establishes optimal approximation thresholds of 3/4 for deterministic algorithms and approximately 0.7942 for randomized algorithms, while allowing a constant number of changes per step. The authors provide matching impossibility results and achieve these bounds by balancing preparation for future arrivals with protection of the current solution, using techniques such as interval-selection analysis for randomized algorithms and certificate-based rounding for deterministic ones.
