Game refinement theory has started to provide some interesting tools to measure sophistication of board games, sport games, and video games. In this paper, we apply game refinement theory to UNO R © card game, from which we identify valuable aspects regarding multiplayer and incomplete information game. Specifically, we analyze game refinement value zone of UNO and reveal recommended number of ...

cooperation is the foundation of many protocols in wireless networks. without cooperation, the performance of a network significantly decreases. hence, all nodes in traditional networks are required to cooperate with each other. in this paper, instead of traditional networks, a network of rational and autonomous nodes is considered, which means that each node itself can decide whether to cooper...

Acta Academica is an accredited, open access South African journal dedicated to scholarship in the humanities. The publishes independently refereed research articles It promotes perspectives of critical social theory and engagements with postcolonial post-developmental debates special references (Southern) Africa. thereby support scholarly work that examines how humanities twenty-first century ...

in this paper, a new approach based on game theory has been proposed to multi responses problem optimization. game theory is a useful tool for decision making in the conflict of interests between intelligent players in order to select the best joint strategy for them through selecting the best joint desirability. present research uses the game theory approach via definition of each response as ...

By mixing concepts from both game theoretic analysis and real options theory, an investment decision in a competitive market can be seen as a “game” between firms, as firms implicitly take into account other firms’ reactions to their own investment actions. We review several real option game models, suggesting which critical problems have been “solved” by considering game theory, and which sign...

this paper shows how game theory can be applied to modeling the interaction between government and manufacturer in implementation of cleaner production. a generic game model based upon ‘two-person non-cooperative’ static game is created to allow various strategic actions being tested by stages, and aid decision making by selecting optimal strategy for both manufacturer and policy maker to reduc...

In this work we present an evolving system of agents which interact with each other in game theoretic settings. The parameters of the game are considered as time dependent variables representing state of the external environment. The variation of these parameters covers four canonical examples from game theory: prisoners dilemma, hawk-dove, stag-hunt and harmony game. The process of selfadaptat...

Serious Games have been used to education and training purposes in several areas. The main purpose of such applications is providing interactive and motivating tools for specific situations. The present paper presents a game to support Geography teaching that uses intelligence based on the Evidence Theory to assess users movements and change the screenplay. It allows decision making to provide ...

MANET is the collection of various wireless mobile nodes. Security is of high concern in mobile ad hoc network as it has no centralized authority which can oversee the particular node working in the network. The attacks can be preformed from both inside and outside the network. Nodes within surrounding to gain common radio link can be often used to set up ad hoc infrastructure. But the safe com...

The problem of mapping tasks onto a computational grid with the aim to minimize the power consumption and the makespan subject to the constraints of deadlines and architectural requirements is considered in this paper. To solve this problem, we propose a solution from cooperative game theory based on the concept of Nash Bargaining Solution. The proposed game theoretical technique is compared ag...
