Abstract

We consider market-based mechanisms for allo-cating transmission rates to a set of users whose rates are constrained to lie in a polymatroid capacity region. We study two simple mechanisms, both of which are generalizations of Kelly's well known allocation mechanism to this setting. We characterize the equilibrium properties of these mechanisms for "price anticipating" users.
