ReACT-TTC: Capacity-Aware Top Trading Cycles for Post-Choice Reassignment in Shared CPS

A mechanism-design approach for recovering shared cyber-physical systems when the original assignment is disrupted by human behavior, capacity limits, or changing preferences.

ICCPS 2026

Why this problem matters

Shared CPS often rely on an initial assignment: an EV is routed to a charger, a user is assigned a resource, or a system reserves capacity for a task. In practice, users may change their decisions, resources may become unavailable, and the system must recover without restarting from scratch.

DomainShared CPS and EV charging
MethodTop trading cycles with capacity awareness
GoalPost-choice reassignment after disruption

Main Contributions

Model

Post-choice reassignment

Frames reassignment as a recovery problem after an initial allocation, instead of treating every disruption as a fresh assignment problem.

Mechanism

Capacity-aware TTC

Extends top trading cycles to support shared CPS settings where resource capacity and agent preferences both shape feasible exchanges.

CPS relevance

Human-aware recovery

Targets real CPS behavior: agents do not always follow the plan, and infrastructure systems need principled ways to adapt.

This line of work is part of my broader research agenda on game-theoretic, optimization-based, and learning-enabled decision-making for shared cyber-physical systems under uncertainty.
