論　題：Attaining Nearly Pareto Improvements via Forcing Asymmetric Information

概　要：「By the mid-1950s, William Vickrey had introduced and formalized the notions of the social marginal costs of economic activities, and of the role of games of asymmetric, incomplete-information. He represented asymmetry of individual demands for a congestible public resource by [a] variations in the desired time of day to be able to commute through a bottleneck, and [b] variations in marginal valuations of decreases in commuting time. Other than increases in data availability and computing power, there has been little improvement over Vickrey's recommended approaches in two-thirds of a century. A new usage of data availability and computing power is proposed. Its essence is highly diminished use of public provision of information, replaced by providing individual-specific private (asymmetric) information, constrained (as was recognized by Vickrey) by incentive-compatibility considerations. The paper will present the basic idea and describe its algorithmic novelty, and illustrate in three settings: departure for such events as football games, futbol games, and rock concerts; hurricane evacuation in developed nations; and improving rush-hour road-traffic congestion.」
