1. 1. Game Theory and Agents

   Författare :Stefan J. Johansson; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Game Theory; Multi-Agent Systems; No Free Lunch Theorem; Characteristic Distributions;

   Sammanfattning : A fundamental problem in multi agent systems is conflict resolution. A conflict occurs in general when the agents have to deal with inconsistent goals, such as a demand for shared resources. We investigate how a game theoretic approach may be a helpful and efficient tool in examining a class of conflicts in multi agent systems. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : The objective of this dissertation is to analyse and discuss the issue of self-organisation from a spatial point of view. The thesis takes its point of departure firstly from the assumption that self-organisation concerns a process through which subjects aspire to become involved in societal development and decision-making from below, and secondly that self-organisation always takes place in a social and spatial context that establishes its conditions.

   Sammanfattning : Recruitment and selection of managers is to a large degree characterized by information uncertainty. Managers’ performance is difficult to evaluate, as their responsibility consists of so many different aspects, as they may not always be observed due to need for freedom of action and as their work is affected by factors in their environment, which are outside of their control.

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introduction and six papers on the topics of degree distributions in random graphs and tournaments and their limits.The first two papers deal with a dynamic random graph, evolving in time through duplication and deletion of vertices and edges. In Paper I we study the degree densities of this model. LÄS MER
