Firstly, the normal distribution is employed to approximate Poisson requests and binomial goshows. By calculating the mean loss, a model to describe the relationship between booking level and flight revenue is established. Then, an equation is deduced to decide the optimal booking level. Finally, a numerical example is utilized to illustrate the proposed model and discuss the impact of refund rate on the optimal booking level and the mean loss.展开更多

To establish sufficient conditions for termination and nontermination simultaneously, the authors propose the notion of strong/weak non-termination which under/over- approximates non-termination. Based on polynomial ideal theory, the authors show that the set of all strong non-terminating inputs (SNTI) and weak non-terminating inputs (WNTI) both correspond to tile real varieties of certain polynomial ideals. Furthermore, the authors prove that the variety of SNTI is computable, and under some sufficient conditions the variety of WNTI is also computable. Then by checking the computed SNTI and WNTI varieties in parallel, termination properties of a consid- ered MPP can be asserted. As a consequence, the authors establish a new framework for termination analysis of MPPs.展开更多
