We consider an e‐tailer's upstream supplier who wants to encroach into retailing earn additional revenue. The needs decide whether or not enter the retail market by either selling consumers on platform paying commission fees (agency encroachment) opening independent online/offline store (direct encroachment). e‐tailer has private demand information and decides share it with supplier. Two leadership scenarios—the supplier‐leads (i.e., selects channel before information) e‐tailer‐leads after...
Female user (driver and rider) safety is a serious concern for ride‐hailing platforms. One way to address this migrate from the traditional “pooling” system that matches riders with drivers without considering gender “hybrid” “female‐only” option. Will such hybrid result in win‐win‐win outcome all involved parties (riders, drivers, platform)? To answer question, we investigate performance of two operational systems: pooling system. For each system, analyze two‐stage queueing game determine...
Problem definition: A critical problem associated with ride-hailing platforms is safety for female users (riders and drivers). One way to resolve or at least alleviate this migrate from the commonly adopted gender-neutral "pooling" system that matches riders drivers without considering gender a "hybrid" female-only option. Will switching hybrid result in win-win outcome all parties (riders, platform)? If current pooling kept, how shall work on user improve their performance? With system,...
Abstract We consider a supply chain with manufacturer and retailer, where the is diseconomy of scale regarding production may encroach into downstream market. prove that changes traditional wisdom impact encroachment on performance. First, we show disincentivizes manufacturer's encroachment. Second, different from literature believes retailer can be better off as long it has selling cost advantage compared manufacturer, establish condition always hurts regardless advantage. Third, find when...
We consider an on-demand platform connecting independent agents and delay-sensitive boundedly rational customers. By adopting a queueing-game framework, we analyze the equilibrium joining behaviors of customers agents, platform's optimal pricing strategy, resulting profit social welfare. Moreover, investigate how bounded rationality level affects these results. obtain following main insights. First, when are irrational, positive externality between becomes weak. In other words, increasing...
