A remark on the customs and smuggler game

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 1994, vol. 41, issue 2, 287-293

Abstract: Baston and Bostock formulated a zero‐sum game of exhaustion modeling the problem of Customs trying to stop a Smuggler attempting to ship a cargo of perishable contraband across a strait, when Customs has n speedboats for patrolling. Thomas and Nisgav solved this problem for one speedboat. Baston and Bostock investigated it for two speedboats. This article addresses the solution of the three‐boat variant of the Customs and Smuggler game. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
