Public Choice and the Economic Analysis of Anarchy: A Survey [PDF]
Public choice economists began studying the economics of anarchy in the 1970s. Since then, the amount of research on anarchy has burgeoned. This article surveys the important public choice contributions to the economics of anarchy.

A Dynamic Pricing Scheme for Congestion Game in Wireless Machine-to-Machine Networks
The problem of assigning a set of source nodes to a set of routes in wireless machine-to-machine (M2M) networks is addressed using a game theoretic approach.

On the Smoothed Price of Anarchy of the Traffic Assignment Problem [PDF]
We study the effect of perturbations on the Price of Anarchy for the Traffic Assignment Problem. Adopting the smoothed analysis approach, we randomly perturb the latency functions of the given network and estimate the expected Price of Anarchy on the ...

The Local and Global Price of Anarchy of Graphical Games
This paper initiates a study of connections between local and global properties of graphical games. Specifically, we introduce a concept of local price of anarchy that quantifies how well subsets of agents respond to their environments.

Traffic light cycles for a sustainable city [PDF]
Cities worldwide struggle to reduce car dependency despite its costs: congestion, pollution, inefficient land use and traffic fatalities. Traffic light timing, often favouring cars, plays a surprisingly powerful yet underexplored role in commuters ...

Strong Price of Anarchy and Coalitional Dynamics
We introduce a framework for studying the effect of cooperation on the quality of outcomes in utility games. Our framework is a coalitional analog of the smoothness framework of non-cooperative games. Coalitional smoothness implies bounds on the strong price of anarchy, the loss of quality of coalitionally stable outcomes, as well as bounds on ...

Terahertz (THz)-band communications are a possible candidate for fast communication. Transmission power needs to be optimised in order to satisfy the requirements of such a network of nodes.

Atomic routing in a deterministic queuing model
The issue of selfish routing through a network has received a lot of attention in recent years. We study an atomic dynamic routing scenario, where players allocate resources with load dependent costs only for some limited time.
