Fair sharing of bandwidth in distributed systems is considered. The inherently contentionbased medium access in distributed systems is modelled as a non-cooperative game: “Access Game”. It is shown that the Nash Equilibrium (NE) for incomplete information games is usually inefficient compared to the NE of complete information games. Consequently, simple mechanisms to approximate an incomplete i...

Conventional Bayesian games of incomplete information are limited in their ability to represent complete ignorance of an uninformed player about an opponent’s private information. Using an illustrative example of repeated bargaining with interactive learning, we analyze a dynamic game of incomplete information that incorporates a multiple-prior belief system. We consider a game in which a princ...

In the literature of game theory, the information sets of extensive form games have different interpretations, which may lead to confusions and paradoxical cases. We argue that the problem lies in the mix-up of two interpretations of the extensive form game structures: game rules or game runs which do not always coincide. In this paper, we try to separate and connect these two views by proposin...

We consider the joint design of control and scheduling under stochastic Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks in context networked systems. A sensor takes measurements system output forwards its dynamic state estimates to a remote controller over packet-dropping link. The determines optimal law for process using it receives. An attacker aims at degrading performance by increasing packet-dropout rate ...

Potential games are games with potential functions. Technically, the potential function defines a refinement concept. We provide justification for this refinement concept using the notion of robustness of equilibria. A Nash equilibrium of a complete information game is said to be robust if every incomplete information game where payoffs are almost always given by the complete information game h...

Consider a player playing against different opponents in two extensive form games simultaneously. Can she then have a strategy in one game using information from the other? The famous example of playing chess against two grandmasters simultaneously illustrates such reasoning. We consider a simple dynamic logic of extensive form games with sequential and parallel composition in which such situat...

in the restructured environment of electricity market, firstly the generating companies and the customers are looking for maximizing their profit and secondly independent system operator is looking for the stability of the power network and maximizing social welfare. in this paper, a one way auction in the electricity market for the generator companies is considered in both perfect and imperfec...
