It's the requirement to research data replication strategies for improving the reliability and efficiency of complex network. We use noncooperative game theory to analyze the replica placement problem in the paper, and the model of replica placement in large-scale distributed network is proposed. Then we prove the existence of pure strategy Nash equilibrium in the model, and propose the replica placement...
Prisoner's dilemma (PD) game has been used as a prototypical model for studying social choice situations with self-interested agents. Although in a single shot PD game, both players playing defect is a Nash equilibrium, in social settings, cooperation among self-interested agents is usually observed. This phenomenon of emergence of cooperation can be captured by repeated PD games in graphs consisting...
International pollution control requires cooperation by regions to internalize the negative externalities of pollution. A number of studies proved that the incentives to cooperate will be very sensitive to the way the transfer rule is designed. Based on the idea of Vickrey-Clark-Groves mechanism, this paper designs an incentive mechanism to implement the dynamic cooperation in international pollution...
In Ad Hoc network, all the network functions count on node cooperation. Forwarding packets of other nodes is a basic example of such cooperation. However, nodes may not be interested in forwarding the requesting packets due to selfish or malicious reasons, which significantly degrades the network performance. Therefore, in respect of node forwarding process, we propose a global punishment-based repeated-game...
We propose a new distributed power control scheme for closed access femtocell networks. Since femto APs can be deployed unpredictably in a macro cell area, interference to macro users and interference between femto APs in down-link (DL) cause a severe problem. In this paper, we describe the system model using a noncooperative game model. We formulate a payoff function to provide fairness and to minimize...
This paper presents a three-stages game model between one manufacture and Yl retailers which engaged in Cournot competition. If the retailers share their forecasts truthfully, the manufacturer always benefits; however, the profits of the retailers always worse off by disclosing their demand information to the manufacturer. However, we show that the retailers have an incentive to understate their forecasts...
