A novel cooperative game between client and subcontractors based on technical characteristics
author
Abstract:
Large projects often have several activities which are performed by some subcontractors with several skills. Costs and time reduction and quality improvement of the project are very important for client and subcontractors. Therefore, in real large projects, subcontractors join together and form coalitions for improving the project profit. A key question is how an extra profit of cooperation among subcontractors should be assigned to them. This paper tries to address this question by proposing a cooperative game model based on technical characteristics of subcontractors. Technical characteristics of each contractor specify its value in the coalitions that it may join. Fair and appropriate allocation of profit among subcontractors is suggested by adopting cooperative game theory methods such as the Core method, Shapley method, Equal Profit Method (EPM) and the t-value.

Modeling Subcontractors Cooperation in Time; Cooperative Game Theory Approach
Time, as one of most important factors in a successful construction project, can be traded between subcontractors in sequential projects. In optimal case for trading time, subcontractors have reasonable incentive to cooperate. In this paper we introduce a new problem in field of subcontractors cooperating and then we propose a model to solve it. Finally, a case study is represented to more comp...

Identifying clusters is an important aspect of data analysis. This paper proposes a noveldata clustering algorithm to increase the clustering accuracy. A novel game theoretic self-organizingmap (NGTSOM ) and neural gas (NG) are used in combination with Competitive Hebbian Learning(CHL) to improve the quality of the map and provide a better vector quantization (VQ) for clusteringdata.
