Pooling of critical, low-utilization resources with unavailability
研究了多个服务提供商将关键但低利用率且可能不可用的资源进行池化合作，通过合作博弈分析利润分配，证明核心非空、提出分配方案并检验其性质。
We consider an environment in which several independent service providers can collaborate by pooling their critical, low-utilization resources that are subject to unavailability. We examine the allocation of the joint profit for such a pooled situation by studying an associated cooperative game. For this game, we will prove non-emptiness of the core, present a population monotonic allocation scheme and show convexity under some conditions. Moreover, four allocation rules will be introduced and we will investigate whether they satisfy monotonicity to availability, monotonicity to profit, situation symmetry and game symmetry. Finally, we will also investigate whether the payoff vectors resulting from those allocation rules are members of the core.
