Abstract

We present a cross-monotonic competitive cost-sharing method with provable cost-recovery ratio for the soft-capacitated economic lot-sizing game, an extension of the basic economic lot-sizing game, under the weak triangle inequality assumption.

Research supported by NSF of China (Grant No. 10871014 and 60773185) and Program for Beijing Excellent Talents.
