| Abstract: | Van Ackere and Ninios (VN) used discrete-event simulation to determine the optimal strategies for a monopolist who operates a single-server facility and uses advertising to attract customers. Their model was based upon an M/Er/1/K/ queue. In this paper, the authors reanalyze their model using queuing theory and numerical optimization. The authors' results allow the optimal strategies to be characterized more precisely, and this leads to a reassessment and modification of the conclusions reached by VN. |
