Locational Marginal Prices Scheme Considering Transmission Congestion and Network Losses

Muhammad Bachtiar Nappu
2014 Universal Journal of Electrical and Electronic Engineering  
In this approach, cost of transmission services is implemented together with LMP which represents energy price, network losses cost, and transmission congestion cost.  ...  This manuscript presents a basic concept of nodal price modeling in a competitive electricity market and some special considerations on its formulation.  ...  Introduction In a competitive market environment, bottlenecks in the transmission line will be an obstacle for perfect competition among the market participants.  ...

Pricing for local and global WiFi markets [article]

Lingjie Duan and Jianwei Huang and Biying Shou
2014 arXiv   pre-print
This paper analyzes two pricing schemes commonly used in WiFi markets: the flat-rate and the usage-based pricing.  ...  In Stage I, the global provider bargains with the local provider in each market to determine the global WiFi service price and revenue sharing agreement.  ...  In practice, we observe flat-rate pricing in most competition markets, as the usage-based pricing is complex and costly to manage.  ...

Network neutrality and the evolution of the internet

Günter Knieps
2011 International Journal of Management and Network Economics  
An economic framework for market driven network neutrality in broadband Internet is provided, consisting of congestion pricing and quality of service differentiation.  ...  Abstract: In order to create incentives for Internet traffic providers not to discriminate with respect to certain applications on the basis of network capacity requirements, the concept of market driven  ...  These opportunity costs can hardly be ignored when establishing competitive pricing strategies and should therefore survive under competition and free entry in Internet traffic service markets.  ...

Pricing congestible network resources

J.K. MacKie-Mason, H.R. Varian
1995 IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications  
We explore the implications of flat pricing and congestion pricing for capacity expansion in centrally planned, competitive, and monopolistic environments.  ...  In particular, we examine the implications of "congestion pricing" as a way to encourage efficient use of network resources.  ...  Why is the competitive market price equal to the sum of congestion costs?  ...

The Role of Data Cap in Optimal Two-Part Network Pricing

Xin Wang, Richard T. B. Ma, Yinlong Xu
2017 IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking  
In this paper, we study the impact of data cap on the optimal twopart pricing schemes for congestion-prone service markets, e.g., broadband or cloud services.  ...  We model users' demand and preferences over pricing and congestion alternatives and derive the market share and congestion of service providers under a market equilibrium.  ...  This work is also supported in part by National Nature Science  ...

How can routers help Internet economics?

John M. Schnizlein
1998 Proceedings of the first international conference on Information and computation economies - ICE '98  
At this limit, routers protect the network from congestive collapse by dropping additional traffic based on the type of service marks.  ...  How can the network (routers) differentiate service so that it justifies differential pricing?  ...  Both competition and variable pricing exist in telephone networks.  ...

Internet Resource Pricing Models, Mechanisms, and Methods [article]

Huan He, Ke Xu, Ying Liu
2011 arXiv   pre-print
Finally, we conclude the paper and forecast the research direction on pricing strategy which is applicable to novel service situation in the near future.  ...  On network resource pricing methods, we discuss the utility optimization in economics, and emphasize two classes of pricing methods (including system optimization and entities' strategic optimizations)  ...  Such work is often based on different market structures (such as monopoly and competitive network) and network service mechanisms (such as best-effort and QoS guaranteed service network).  ...

Some FAQs about usage-based pricing

Jeffrey K. MacKie-Mason, Hal R. Varian
1995 Computer networks and ISDN systems  
We argue that usage-based pricing is likely to come sooner or later and that some serious thought should be devoted to devising a sensible system of usage-based pricing.  ...  This is a list of Frequently Asked Questions about usage-based pricing of the Internet.  ...  Different approaches to allocating network usage What are "smart" markets? In MacKie-Mason and Varian (1994a) we proposed a way to price network usage that we called "smart markets."  ...

Commercial models for IP quality of service interconnect

B. Briscoe, S. Rudkin
2005 BT technology journal  
We give technical and economic arguments for why QoS will be provided in core and backbone networks as a bulk QoS facility incapable of distinguishing or charging differentially between sessions.  ...  Interconnection of IP QoS capabilities between networks releases considerable value. In this paper we show where this value will be realised.  ...  So, in a competitive (or well-regulated) retail market, usage charges will tend towards cost.  ...

Internet service classes under competition

R. Gibbens, R. Mason, R. Steinberg
2000 IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications  
The reason is that a competition effect always outweighs a segmentation effect. Networks wish to offer multiple service classes in order to increase user benefits and hence charge higher prices.  ...  In the model analyzed, a social planner who maximizes the total benefit from network usage and a profit maximizing monopolist will both form multiple service classes; but two networks competing to maximize  ...  References [1] and [16] show that the degree of competition may be increased when both subscription-and usage-based pricing is allowed.  ...
