Retailer-Supplier Matching: an Application of the Deferred Acceptance Algorithm
In this paper, we apply matching theory to supply chain coordination. We present mathematical optimization models similar to the newsvendor problem to provide appropriate conditions for retailer-supplier matching. In particular, our matching algorithm, compared to the general matching theory, has uniquely been affected by contract sizes and ordering sequences. We also study that our matching ap...
متن کاملIn search of advice for participants in matching markets which use the deferred-acceptance algorithm
Many centralized entry-level labor markets use the firm-proposing deferred-acceptance (DA) algorithm to compute the matching that is implemented among workers and firms. We propose a definition of the strategic options a worker faces in the DA-algorithm. Then we develop a theory to advise workers who distinguish between the firms from which they believe not to receive a proposal, the firms from...
متن کاملA modified deferred acceptance algorithm for many-to-one matching markets with externalities among firms
We consider a many-to-one matching market with externalities among firms where each firm’s preferences satisfy substitutability, increasing choice and no external effect by unchosen workers, which are defined by Bando (2012). We first illustrate that a sequential version of the deferred acceptance (DA) algorithmwithworker-proposingmay not find aworker-optimal quasi stablematching. Then,we provi...
متن کاملDynamic Matching Markets and the Deferred Acceptance Mechanism
Many matching markets are dynamic, with one side’s priorities often depending on previous allocations. This creates opportunities for manipulations that do not exist in static matching problems. The school-choice problem, for example, exhibits considerable student mobility and a priority system that favors incumbent students and their siblings. In such a dynamic environment, parents can manipul...
متن کاملAxioms for Deferred Acceptance
The deferred acceptance algorithm is often used to allocate indivisible objects when monetary transfers are not allowed. We provide two characterizations of agent-proposing deferred acceptance allocation rules. Two new axioms, individually rational monotonicity and weak Maskin monotonicity, are essential to our analysis. An allocation rule is the agent-proposing deferred acceptance rule for som...
