我们研究了原子拥塞博弈中自私和利他主义的结合效应。我们允许玩家部分地利他，部分地自私，并确定这种行为对整体系统性能的影响。令人惊讶的是，我们的结果表明，总的来说，通过允许玩家(甚至部分)利他主义，整个系统的性能会恶化。相反，对于对称的负载平衡游戏，自私和利他行为之间的平衡将系统性能提高到最优。
We study the effect of combining selfishness and altruism in atomic congestion games. We allow players to be partially altruistic and partially selfish and determine the impact of this behavior on the overall system performance. Surprisingly, our results indicate that, in general, by allowing players to be (even partially) altruistic, the overall system performance deteriorates. Instead, for the class of symmetric load balancing games, a balance between selfish and altruistic behavior improves system performance to optimality.
