  3. 2. Good Things Come to Those Who Wait - An analysis of student housing in Stockholm as a dynamic matching problem with an overloaded waiting list

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Moritz von Schwartzenberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Dynamic matching; Overloaded waiting list; Housing allocation; Queuing; Robust mechanism;

    Abstract : Motivated by the high demand for student housing in Stockholm, this thesis analyzes the allocation of student housing in Stockholm in light of recent developments in dynamic matching. Taking Leshno (2017) as a basis, we set up a model with an overloaded waiting list, a concept introduced by Leshno to describe waiting lists of sufficient length such that arriving items can always be assigned.

  4. 3. Switched multi-hop FCFS networks - the influence of traffic shapers on soft real-time performance

    University essay from Sektionen för Informationsvetenskap, Data– och Elektroteknik (IDE)

    Author : Syed Hasnain Raza Tirmazi; Shashank Sharma; [2010]
    Keywords : Traffic shaper; Leaky bucket; Tree topology; FCFS queue; Multihop; Soft real-time;

    Abstract : In the past 10 years, the bandwidths and processing capabilities of the networks have increased dramatically. The number of real-time applications using these networks has also increased. The large number of real-time packets might, in a switched multi-hop network, lead to unpredictable traffic patterns.
