Dynamic Formation of Network with Adoption

چکیده
We analyze an entry game with multiple periods, in each period of which privately informed agents who have not joined yet decide whether to subscribe to a network, and subscribers derive benefits in future periods depending on the network size. We study the case that the agents are sufficiently patient and show that there exists a unique symmetric equilibrium if the number of existing subscribers is common knowledge in each period, thereby resolving the coordination problem which is prevalent in markets with network externalities. Asymmetric equilibria may exist, but we show that they, if exist, converge to the unique symmetric equilibrium as the number of agents increases without bound.

Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance by Distributed Algorithm based on Reinforcement Learning (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper we focus on the application of reinforcement learning to obstacle avoidance in dynamic Environments in wireless sensor networks. A distributed algorithm based on reinforcement learning is developed for sensor networks to guide mobile robot through the dynamic obstacles. The sensor network models the danger of the area under coverage as obstacles, and has the property of adoption o...
متن کاملMulti-layer Clustering Topology Design in Densely Deployed Wireless Sensor Network using Evolutionary Algorithms
Due to the resource constraint and dynamic parameters, reducing energy consumption became the most important issues of wireless sensor networks topology design. All proposed hierarchy methods cluster a WSN in different cluster layers in one step of evolutionary algorithm usage with complicated parameters which may lead to reducing efficiency and performance. In fact, in WSNs topology, increasin...
متن کاملMalmquist Productivity Index with Dynamic Network Structure
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) measures the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. DEA-based Malmquist productivity index measures the productivity change over time. We propose a dynamic DEA model involving network structure in each period within the framework a DEA. We have previously published the network DEA (NDEA) and the dynamic DEA ...
متن کاملAdoption features and approach for UWB Wireless Sensor Network based on Pilot Signal assisted MAC
In the field of wireless sensor network (WSN), Pilot Assisted Transmission (PAT) is a new concept. In our previous research, a mac layer algorithm called, “PA-MAC” was designed, which exclusively uses PAT technique for the medium access control. The performance of PA-MAC was evaluated under multihop and single hop WSNs. It was excellent under a single hop structure (i.e. network with a few node...

متن کاملNon radial model of dynamic DEA with the parallel network structure
In this article, Non radial method of dynamic DEA with the parallel network structure is presented and is used for calculation of relative efficiency measures when inputs and outputs do not change equally. In this model, DMU divisions under evaluation have been put together in parallel. But its dynamic structure is assumed in series. Since in real applications there are undesirable inputs an...
