Table 5.

Comparison between complete (4 requests per carrier) and limited (4 and 5 requests per carrier) pools for smaller instances (O1_10-O3_10)

Instance	# Bundles	# Req. per carrier (%)
		4	5
O1_10	$2^n-1$		n/a
	100	0.0	$-$4.8
	300	0.0	0.2
	500	0.0	0.2
O2_10	$2^n-1$		n/a
	100	$-$9.9	$-$6.5
	300	$-$7.2	$-$4.9
	500	$-$7.2	$-$2.4
O3_10	$2^n-1$		n/a
	100	$-$26.5	$-$14.5
	300	$-$10.3	$-$3.1
	500	$-$7.6	$-$0.2
Average	100	$-$12.2	$-$8.6
	300	$-$5.9	$-$2.6
	500	$-$4.9	$-$0.8

na indicates that the complete pool size of these instances could not be solved. The numbers are the average deviation from the results obtained with the complete pool (4 requests per carrier). Positive values indicate that the limited pools found better results than the complete pool
