Airport problems, introduced by Littlechild and Owen (1973) https://www.jstor.org/stable/2629727, are cost allocation problems where agents share the cost of a facility (or service) based on their ordered needs. Valid allocations must satisfy no-subsidy constraints, meaning that no group of agents contributes more than the highest cost of its members (i.e., no agent is allowed to subsidize another). A rule is a mechanism that selects an allocation vector for a given problem. This package computes several rules proposed in the literature, including both standard rules and their variants, such as weighted versions, rules for clones, and rules based on the agents’ hierarchy order. These rules can be applied to various problems of interest, including the allocation of liabilities and the maintenance of irrigation systems, among others. Moreover, the package provides functions for graphical representation, enabling users to visually compare the outcomes produced by each rule, or to display the no-subsidy set. In addition, it includes four datasets illustrating different applications and examples of airport problems. For a more detailed explanation of all concepts, see Thomson (2024) doi:10.1016/j.mathsocsci.2024.03.007.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("AirportProblems", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-airportproblems

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-AirportProblems

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-AirportProblems

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
