Abstract The article compares two different approaches of incorporating probability into coalition logics. One is based on the semantics games with stochastic transitions and other failures. work gives an example a non-trivial property power for first approach complete axiomatization second approach. It turns out that logical properties modality under depend whether modal language allows empty ...

In the literature of coalitional games, power indices have been widely used to assess the influence that a player has in situations where coalitions may be winning or losing. However, in many cases things are not so simple as that: in some practical situations, all that we know about coalitions is a relative comparison of strength. For instance, we know that a football team is stronger than ano...

Similar to what happens between humans in the real world, in open multi-agent systems distributed over the Internet, such as online social networks or wiki technologies, agents often form coalitions by agreeing to act as a whole in order to achieve certain common goals. However, agent coalitions are not always a desirable feature of a system, as malicious or corrupt agents may collaborate in or...

East Tennessee State University (ETSU) was awarded a grant through an interagency agreement between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Appalachian Regional Commission to promote cancer control activities between state comprehensive cancer control (CCC) coalitions and local Appalachian communities. We invited representatives from CCC coalitions and Appalachian communities to ...

The class of exact transferable utility coalitional games, introduced in 1972 by Schmeidler, has been studied both the context game theory and imprecise probabilities. We characterize cone games describing minimal set linear inequalities defining this cone; these facet-defining for appear to correspond certain systems (= coalitions). noticed that non-empty proper coalitions having non-zero coef...

In this paper, we study dynamic supplier alliances in a decentralized assembly system. We examine a supply chain in which n suppliers sell complementary components to a downstream assembler, who faces a price-sensitive deterministic demand. We analyze alliance/coalition formation between suppliers, using a two-stage approach. In Stage 1, suppliers form coalitions that each agree to sell a kit o...
