Service scheduling for random requests with fixed waiting costs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study service scheduling problems in a slotted system which agents arrive with requests according to Bernoulli process and have leave within two slots after arrival, costs are quadratic rates, there is also waiting cost. consider fixed costs. frame the problem as an average cost Markov decision process. While studied linear costs, it has state dependent control. Moreover, possesses non-standard function structure rendering optimization complex. Here, we characterize optimal policy. make decisions for their respective keeping own view. this stochastic game. provide Nash equilibrium.

Waiting Strategies for Anticipating Service Requests from Known Customer Locations
This paper considers a dynamic and stochastic routing problem in which information about customer locations and probabilistic information about future service requests are used to maximize the expected number of customers served by a single uncapacitated vehicle. The problem is modeled as a Markov decision process and analytical results on the structure of the optimal policy are derived. For th...
متن کاملBase station scheduling of requests with fixed deadlines
We consider a packet switched wireless network in which a base station serves the mobiles. The packets for the mobiles arrive at the base station and have to be scheduled for transmission to the mobiles. The capacity of the channel from the base station to the mobiles is varying with time due to fading. We assume the mobiles can obtain different types of service based on the prices they are wil...

متن کاملPublic transport fleet scheduling for minimizing total transfer waiting time
Public transportation has been one of the most important research fields in the two last decades. The purpose of this paper is to create a schedule for public transport fleets such as buses and metro trains with the goal of minimizing the total transfer waiting time. We extend previous research works in the field of transit schedule with considering headways of each route as decision variables....
