ä Relatively few overbooking presentations have been made at AGIFORS in the past five years ä Smith, Leimkuhler, and Darrow (1992) estimated that 40 % of the yield management benefit is attributable to overbooking ä Application of overbooking to nested leg class control structure is relatively well established

of the basic properties of the networks. More recently, a deterministic approach has proven useful to complement and enhance the probabilistic and simulation techniques. In this paper, after a short introduction to the main concepts and models, we survey recent deterministic models. Keywords. Complex networks

Abstract. In this paper we survey some results concerning the impact of faulty environments on the solvability and complexity of communica-tion tasks. In particular, we focus on deterministic models of faults in synchronous networks, and show how different variations of the model influence

Abstract. This article explores the relationship between stochastic and deterministic models in demography and epidemiology. We conduct a large number of simulations of our stochastic demographic pair-formation model and concentrate on the average behavior of the model and its variability. We

of the estimate. We focus our attention on the frequency response of the model and its relationship to the frequency response of the true system. In this context we examine both stochastic and deterministic model formulations. In particular we discuss a novel stochastic formulation for the discrepancy between

We describe a deterministic model of packet delay and use it to derive both the packet pair [2] property of FIFO-queueing networks and a new technique (packet tailgating) for actively measuring link bandwidths. Compared to previously known techniques, packet tailgating usually consumes less network

We study several deterministic one-dimensional traffic models. For integer positions and velocities we find the typical high and low density phases separated by a simple transition. If positions and velocities are continuous variables the model shows self-organized criticality driven by the slowest

The title of this book gives a very good description of its contents and style, although I might have added “Introduction to ” at the beginning. The style is mathematical: precise, clear statements (i.e., theorems) are asserted, then carefully proved. The book covers many of the key topics in control theory, except — as the subtitle has warned us — those involving stochastic processes or infinite-dimensional systems. The level is appropriate for a senior

Abstract. Deterministic dynamical models are discussed which can be described in quantum mechanical terms. – In particular, a local quantum field theory is presented which is a supersymmetric classical model [1]. The Hilbert space approach of Koopman and vonNeumann is used to study the classical
