Abstract
A method and structure for computing a capacity-dependent price for an on-demand scenario includes a demand model module that stores a demand model for the on-demand scenario. A supply model module stores an evaluation of at least one of available and total supply for the on-demand scenario. A computing module relates the demand and supply for the on-demand scenario and computes a capacity-dependent price.
