This article introduces a proper redefinition of the concept of bottleneck Steiner distance for the Prize-Collecting Steiner Problem. This allows the application of reduction test...
We prove a lower bound on the optimal price for a fairly large class of blocking systems with general arrival and service processes, determine optimal price expressions for M/M/1/...
We consider an M/G/1 queueing system where the speed of the server depends on the amount of work present in the system. As a service policy, we adopt the PM , release policy in a ...
Using duality, we reformulate the asymmetric variational inequality (VI) problem over a conic region as an optimization problem. We give sufficient conditions for the convexity of...
This paper is concerned with information revelation in single-item auctions. We compute how much data needs to be transmitted in three strategically equivalent auctions--the Vickr...
