| Περίληψη: |
We study a seat allocation problem in public transportation with potential seating restrictions. We first demonstrate that the commonly used procedure suffers from significant drawbacks, including welfare losses due to unfilled seats. We then introduce a new mechanism that addresses these deficiencies while also satisfying several other desirable properties under various seating restrictions. We also show that our proposed mechanism ensures that the maximum number of agents are seated while respecting agents' preferences and priority rankings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
