Design of a Reputation System Based on Dynamic Coalition Formation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reputation systems bear some challenging problems where buyers have different subjectivity in evaluating their experience with sellers and they may not have incentives to share their experience. In this paper, we propose a novel reputation system based on dynamic coalition formation where buyers with similar subjectivity and rich experience will be awarded virtual credits for helping others find trustworthy sellers to successfully conduct business. Our theoretical analysis confirms that the coalitions formed in this way are stable.

Machine Reliability in a Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing System: A Comprehensive Approach to a Cell Layout Problem
The fundamental function of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) is based on definition and recognition of a type of similarity among parts that should be produced in a planning period. Cell formation (CF) and cell layout design are two important steps in implementation of the CMS. This paper represents a new nonlinear mathematical programming model for dynamic cell formation that employs the ...
متن کاملDCF-S: A Dynamic Coalition Formation Scheme for Rational Agents
We introduce the notion, issues, and challenges of dynamic coalition formation (DCF) among agents in open, heterogeneous and world widely distributed environments. Results achieved in the traditional field of static coalition formation are briefly discussed, as well as the desired results in the new research field of DCF. We propose a simulation-based DCF scheme, called DCF-S, to be applied to ...

Cell formation (CF) problem is one of the most important decision problems in designing a cellular manufacturing system includes grouping machines into machine cells and parts into part families. Several factors should be considered in a cell formation problem. In this work, robust optimization of a mathematical model of a dynamic cell formation problem integrating CF, production planning and w...
متن کاملHedonic Coalition Formation in Networks
Coalition formation is a fundamental problem in the organization of many multi-agent systems. In large populations, the formation of coalitions is often restricted by structural visibility and locality constraints under which agents can reorganize. We capture and study this aspect using a novel network-based model for dynamic locality within the popular framework of hedonic coalition formation ...
متن کاملA class of multi-agent discrete hybrid non linearizable systems: Optimal controller design based on quasi-Newton algorithm for a class of sign-undefinite hessian cost functions
In the present paper, a class of hybrid, nonlinear and non linearizable dynamic systems is considered. The noted dynamic system is generalized to a multi-agent configuration. The interaction of agents is presented based on graph theory and finally, an interaction tensor defines the multi-agent system in leader-follower consensus in order to design a desirable controller for the noted system. A...
