论文摘要
考虑一个两类不可观察的优先级队列,带有泊松到达,一般分布的服务和战略客户。加入高级课程时,客户收取费用。我们分析了根据非抢先(NP)和先发制人(PR)政策可实现的最大收入,并表明提供商总是更好地实施PR政策。此外,当只有一小部分客户加入高级课程时,有时会获得PR下的最大收入。
Consider a two-class unobservable priority queue, with Poisson arrivals, generally distributed service, and strategic customers. Customers are charged a fee when joining the premium class. We analyze the maximum revenue achievable under the non-preemptive (NP) and preemptive-resume (PR) policies, and show that a provider is always better off implementing the PR policy. Further, the maximum revenue under PR is sometimes achieved when only a fraction of the customers join the premium class.
