The deceased-donor kidney transplant candidates in the US are ranked according to characteristics of both the donor and the recipient. We seek the ranking policy that optimizes the efficiency-equity tradeoff among all such policies, taking into account patients' strategic choices. Our approach...

We use queuing-related behavior as an instrument for assessing the social appeal of alternative cultural norms. Specifically, we study the behavior of rational and sophisticated individuals who stand in a given queue waiting to be served, and who, in order to speed up the process, consider...

In a multi-server, single-queue symmetric capacity choice game, Gopalakrishnan et al. (2016) characterize the existence of a Nash equilibrium under a requirement on the servers’ capacity cost functions, which excludes some highly relevant cases where servers have ample discretion over their...

We examine a non-cooperative queueing game where a finite number of customers seek service at a bottleneck facility which opens at a given point in time. The facility servers one customer at a time on a first-come, first-serve basis and the amount of time required to service each customer is...
