Estimation of Cost Allocation Coefficients at the Farm Level Using an Entropy Approach [PDF]
This paper aims to estimate the farm cost allocation coefficients from whole farm input costs. An entropy approach was developed under a Tobit formulation and was applied to a sample of farms from the 2004 FADN data base for Alentejo region, Southern ...

Transmission loss allocation through a modified Ybus
, 2005 A methodology to allocate the active power transmission loss among agents of a power pool is proposed. The approach is based on the inclusion of the admittances equivalent to bus power injections in the bus admittance matrix.

The P-Value for Cost Sharing in Minimum Cost Spanning Tree Situations
The aim of this paper is to introduce and axiomatically characterize the P-value as a rule to solve the cost sharing problem in minimum cost spanning tree (mcst) situations.The P-value is related to the Kruskal algorithm for finding an mcst.Moreover, the

The Bird Core for Minimum Cost Spanning Tree problems Revisited: Monotonicity and Additivity Aspects
A new way is presented to define for minimum cost spanning tree (mcst-) games the irreducible core, which is introduced by Bird in 1976.The Bird core correspondence turns out to have interesting monotonicity and additivity properties and each stable cost

Budgetary policies and available actions: a generalisation of decision rules for allocation and research decisions [PDF]
The allocation problem in health care can be characterised as a mathematical programming problem but attempts to incorporate uncertainty in costs and effect have suffered from important limitations.

Economy of Heat Cost Allocation in Apartment Buildings
Space heating cost allocation according to actual consumption can be one of the possible solutions for energy saving as residents are more motivated to regulate indoor temperature. Nevertheless, different criterions need to be taken into account in order

Realizing efficient outcomes in cost spanning problems [PDF]
We propose a simple non-cooperative mechanism of network formation in cost spanning tree problems. The only subgame equilibrium payoff is efficient. Moreover, we extend the result to the case of budget restrictions.
