چکیده

We study the quality of equilibrium in atomic splittable routing games. We show that in single-source single-sink games on seriesparallel graphs, the price of collusion — the ratio of the total delay of atomic Nash equilibrium to the Wardrop equilibrium — is at most 1. This proves that the existing bounds on the price of anarchy for Wardrop equilibria carry over to atomic splittable routing games in this setting.

A special Class of Stochastic PERT Networks

Considering the network structure is one of the new approaches in studying stochastic PERT networks (SPN). In this paper, planar networks are studied as a special class of networks. Two structural reducible mechanisms titled arc contraction and deletion are developed to convert any planar network to a series-parallel network structure. In series-parallel SPN, the completion time distribution f...
