in this study, the social welfare impacts of the interaction of iranian rice import policies and thai export policies are analyzed using a game theoretic approach in conjunction with econometric supply and demand models. the joint impacts of increasing the world price of rice, resulting from the export policies in thailand along with changes in tariff rates in iran, on social welfare are analyz...

service oriented enterprises (soes) are subject to constant change and variation. in this paper, the changes are considered from an economic perspective based on service culture notion. once a change is implemented, the costs of some member services may increase, whereas the costs of some other services may reduce. we construct a game theoretic model trying to capture the possible conflicting i...

We present a new compositional approach to game theory (CGT) based upon Arrows, concept originally from functional programming, closely related Tambara modules, and operators build Arrows old. model equilibria as bimodule over an Arrow define operator such existing Arrow. also strategies graded which builds by taking the colimit of A final bimodule. use this CGT show how known previously unknow...

Dynamic game theory is applied to analyze the timber market in northern Iran as a duopsony. The Nash equilibrium and the dynamic properties of the system based on marginal adjustments are determined. When timber is sold, the different mills use mixed strategies to give sealed bids. It is found that the decision probability combination of the different mills follow a special form of attractor an...

Markov games are a generalization of Markov decision process to a multi-agent setting. Two-player zero-sum Markov game framework offers an effective platform for designing robust controllers. This paper presents two novel controller design algorithms that use ideas from game-theory literature to produce reliable controllers that are able to maintain performance in presence of noise and paramete...

In engineering education it is important that student develop skills to face challenges of Industry. Teachers find difficult make interested in the subjects which affects learning. Traditional teaching makes passively engaged with content and hence learning do not happen effectively. Active students engage enhance enjoy process itself. Introducing games as a tool learn feel fun way can be possi...

data envelopment analysis (dea) and balanced scorecard (bsc) are two well-known approaches for measuring performance of decision making units (dmus). bsc is especially applied with quality measures, whereas, when the quantity measures are used to evaluate, dea is more appropriate. in the real-world, dmus usually have complex structures such as network structures. one of the well-known network s...
