Description

This monograph provides a detailed analysis on fair queueing rules from a normative, a strategic, and a non-cooperative viewpoint.

The queueing problem is concerned with the following situation: There is a group of agents who must be served in a facility.

The facility can handle only one agent at a time and agents incur waiting costs.

The problem is to find the order in which to serve agents and monetary transfers they should receive.

The queueing problem has been studied extensively in the recent literature.
