Abstract

To improve competitiveness, small and mid-sized carriers ally in horizontal carrier coalitions for request exchange. A crucial aspect for the long-term viability and stability of coalitions is a fair cost allocation among the agents. Despite of the long computing time, the well-known Shapley value has been used as a scheme for cost allocation. The contribution of this paper lies on the development of a suitable sampling procedure that approximates the Shapley value applied to cost allocations for the collaborative traveling salesman problem with time windows. A computational study identifies the deviation of the values generated by the proposed sampling procedures from the actual Shapley value.
