Description for Algorithmics of Matching Under Preferences
Hardback. Matching problems with preferences are all around us - they arise when agents seek to be allocated to one another on the basis of ranked preferences over potential outcomes. Efficient algorithms are needed for producing matchings that optimise the satisfaction of the agents according to their preference lists. This book deals with this topic. Series: Series on Theoretical Computer Science. Num Pages: 524 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: UMB. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 162 x 235 x 32. Weight in Grams: 864.
