چکیده
This paper deals with an observable batch service queueing system in which customers rationally choose whether to form a another customer or not, addition deciding not join the queue. When choosing batch, incomplete decides on optimal waiting time for next arrive and share fee. queue, follow threshold strategy, depends strategy identified former game.

Online Train Disposition: To Wait or Not to Wait?
We deal with an online problem arising from bus/tram/train disposition problems. In particular, we look at the case in which the delay is unknown and the vehicle can only wait in a station so as to minimize the passengers’ waiting time. We present deterministic polynomial-time optimal algorithms and matching lower bounds for several problem versions. In addition, all lower bounds also apply to ...
متن کاملThe concert queueing game: to wait or to be late
We introduce the concert (or cafeteria) queueing problem: A finite but large number of customers arrive into a queueing system that starts service at a specified opening time. Each customer is free to choose her arrival time (before or after opening time), and is interested in early service completion with minimal wait. These goals are captured by a cost function which is additive and linear in...
متن کاملTo Wait or Not to Wait—Separate Mechanisms in the Oculomotor Circuit of Basal Ganglia
We reach a goal immediately after detecting the target, or later by withholding the immediate action. Each time, we choose one of these actions by suppressing the other. How does the brain control these antagonistic actions? We hypothesized that the output of basal ganglia (BG), substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), suppresses antagonistic oculomotor signals by sending strong inhibitory outpu...
متن کاملAntibiotic treatment of acute otitis media in children: to wait or not to wait?
Acute otitis media, the most common bacterial infection in early childhood, is caused in the majority of cases by four bacterial pathogens: Streptococcus pneumoniae, nontypeable Haemophylus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis and group A Streptococcus [1,2]. The pendulum on the controversial topic of treating acute otitis media with antibiotics has swung back and forth during the last 50–60 years...
متن کاملTo wait or not to wait: Optimal ordering under lead time uncertainty and forecast updating
There has been a dramatic increase over the past decade in the number of firms that source finished product from overseas. While this has reduced procurement costs, it has increased supply risk; procurement lead times are longer and are often unreliable. In deciding when and how much to order, firms must consider the lead time risk and the demand risk, i.e., the accuracy of their demand forecas...
