On steiner ratio conjectures
LetM be a metric space andP a finite set of points inM. The Steiner ratio inM is defined to beρ(M)=inf{L s(P)/L m(P) |P ⊂M}, whereL s(P) andL m(P) are the lengths of the Steiner minimal tree and the minimal spann...

Discrete Time Algorithms
The development of algorithms for the computation of projected dynamical systems is a topic equal in importance to that of the exploration of qualitative questions of existence, uniqueness, and stability.

Fixed Demand Traffic Equilibrium
Fixed demand traffic network equilibrium problems, in contrast to elastic demand traffic network equilibrium problems, which were the topic of Chapter 7, assume that there is a fixed and known travel demand as...

Introduction and Overview
Competitive phenomena in diverse disciplines are often characterized by the problem-specific equilibrium state. For example, in economics one encounters the problem in which firms are involved in the productio...

Stability Analysis
Stability of a system is defined as the ability of the system to maintain or restore its equilibrium when acted upon by forces tending to displace it. Hence, the study and understanding of equilibrium problems...

Oligopolistic Market Equilibrium
The oligopoly problem, which consists of a finite number of firms, involved in the production of a homogeneous commodity in a noncooperative manner, is one of the classical problems in economics, dating to Courno...

Chapter
Elastic Demand Traffic Equilibrium
Congested urban transportation networks represent complex systems in which users interact so as to determine their cost-minimizing routes of travel between their points of origin and their destinations. The co...

Chapter
Projected Dynamical Systems
Many systems in the modern world involve interacting agents competing for scarce resources and in such problems the concept of equilibrium plays a central role. Examples of scarce resources include: many natur...

Spatial Price Equilibrium
The perfectly competitive spatial price equilibrium models of Samuelson (1952) and Takayama and Judge (1971) have provided the basic framework for the study of a variety of applications in the fields of energy...

Competitive Tendering Strategies in the Bus Industry
School bus services within the UK are subsidised by the local Passenger Transport Executive and bus operators tender for the contracts, with the lowest price normally winning. Analysis of the bids in one distr...

Massively Parallel Computation of Dynamic Traffic Networks Modeled as Projected Dynamical Systems
In this paper we consider the solution of a dynamic traffic network model with elastic demands modeled as a projected dynamical system in which the demand functions are assumed to be given. The proposed discre...

Network Equilibria and Disequilibria
Many complex systems in which agents compete for scarce resources on a network, either a physical one, as in the case of congested urban transportation systems, or an abstract one, as in the case of certain ec...

Parallel Computation of Invariant Measures
Let S:[0,1]→[0,1] be a nonsingular transformation and let P:L 1(0,1)→L 1(0,1) be the corresponding Frobenius–Perron operator. In this paper we propose a parallel algorithm for computing a fixed density of P, usin...

A closed queuing maintenance network for automated manufacturing systems
This paper models an unreliable automated manufacturing system (AMS) by a closed queuing network. The AMS consists of a multi-stage network of automated work stations linked by a computer. A closed queuing alg...
