It is argued that replicators evolving through natural selection on the basis of fitness are intrinsically selfish. Though the synergy resulting from cooperation is generally advantageous, selfish or subsystem optimization precludes the reaching of a globally optimal cooperative arrangement. This predicament is exemplified by the "Prisoner's dilemma". Different proposals to explain the evolutio...
متن کاملSelfishness, Cooperation and Topology Dynamics in Networks
We study the dynamics of a network of agents (players) under two models settings. In the first model, players (agents) extend heterogeneous cooperation levels to their partners and in the second, perfectly rational and selfish agents engage in an iterated Snowdrift Game and the evolution of the system suggests that cooperation emerges and prevails even when no external rules or norms for punish...

Models of inequity aversion and fairness have dominated the behavioral economics landscape in the last decade. This study gathers data from 240 subjects exposed to variants of two of the major experimental games—dictator and trust—that are employed to provide important empirical content to these models. With a set of simple laboratory treatments that focus on a manipulation of an important feat...
متن کاملCooperation and Selfishness in Strategies for Resource Management
The optimal management of resources is an important research issue in many disciplines, such as biology, economics, political sciences, and computing. In biology, the successful management of resources has a critical impact on the fitness of individuals. In this study, an adaptive multiagent system was used to investigate the effect of environmental conditions on the success of distinct strateg...
