Numerical Bounds on the Price of Anarchy

Figure 3

Relationship between and the demand level for each network (each curve specifies the price of anarchy using the trip matrix for the rush hour period estimated for each case. The price of anarchy for each of the Santiago and Chicago networks coincides with the maximum value. The maximum price of anarchy for the Anaheim network is obtained by doubling the number of trips (i.e., the matrix is weighted by a factor of 2)).
