We study strategic negotiation models featuring costless delay, general recognition procedures, endogenous voting orders, and finite sets of alternatives. Two examples show: 1. non-existence of stationary subgame-perfect equilibrium (SSPE). 2. the recursive equations and optimality conditions...

Resource allocation is a relatively new research area in survey designs and has not been fully addressed in the literature. Recently, the declining participation rates and increasing survey costs have steered research interests towards resource planning. Survey organizations across the world are...

We study the problem of using information about the type of machine failures to control production. When each station in a two stage flowline has a single machine, the processing time distributions are Erlang, and the time to fail as well repair a machine are exponentially distributed; we show...
