The distributed Kolkata Paise Restaurant game
Kastampolidou, Kalliopi; Papalitsas, Christos; … - In: Games 13 (2022) 3, pp. 1-21
The Kolkata Paise Restaurant Problem is a challenging game in which n agents decide where to have lunch during their break. The game is not trivial because there are exactly n restaurants, and each restaurant can accommodate only one agent. We study this problem from a new angle and propose a...

Comparison of Two Probabilistic Techniques for the Assessment of Economic Uncertainty
Mavris, Dimitri N.; Bandte, Oliver - 1997
Several approaches to probabilistic design have been proposed in the past. Only few acknowledged the paradigm shift from performance based design to design for cost. The incorporation of economics in the design process, however, makes a probabilistic approach to design necessary, due to the...

A Unified Economic View of Space Solar Power (SSP)
Charania, Ashraf; Olds, John R. - 2000
Space Solar Power (SSP) is a concept to beam energy from space to terrestrial power grids that could be feasible in about twenty to forty years. Due to the current climate of limited government funding for such large-scale space projects, NASA would prefer more industry involvement (technically...
