Multiple Issues

The edge paradigm that is intended as prominent computing due to its low computation latencies faces multiple issues and challenges due to the restrictions in the computing capabilities and its resource availability especially in the huge populace scenarios. To examine the problems faced during the task scheduling when the edge computing is called up by multiple users at time, the paper puts forward the game theory approach. Utilizing the game theory strategy the paper puts forth the a novel multi-tasking scheduling in the edge computing from the user perception developing an algorithm taking into consideration the consistency of the stable tasks. The analysis of the proposed algorithm used in the allocation of the tasks is done on terms of average time consumed for the execution of the task and the waiting time. The results acquired showed that the proposed method provides a maximized throughput, minimizing the waiting time compared to the conventional methods used in optimizing the parameters of scheduling.

In the paper the concept of using methods and models of the game theory to solve problems in the area of production planning and control is presented. The problems concerning selection of the most favorable routes from given circumstances and for available set of alternative routes in discrete multi-assortment production systems is presented. Considered in this paper the problems related to the allocation of adequate resources to carry out specific production plan of production orders. Combinatorial complexity of those problems is high especially at the operational level. Therefore heuristic or analytical methods are often used in the process of decision support, without indicating the optimum solution. Conducted research in this area are also related to AI methods. The proposed approach in this paper, is based on the game theory in the production planning. The tools of game theory have been used so far mainly in the area of production planning at the levels of strategic and tactical planning. But recently, arises increasingly interest in using game theory in the field of production planning at the operational level. In this case, the player term is replaced with the agent or object term that represents (not the entity or person as it is in the classical approach) production order, production process or package of production orders.

This paper presents a game theory approach to solve two types op problem, hierarchical and decentralized bi-level multi-objective problem with multiple objective functions at the upper level and multiple players at the lower level. The sensitivity based approach is applied for numerical approach. A sensitivity based algorithm is proposed to the Hierarchical and decentralized bi-level multi-objective problem. Two scenarios are studied in this paper for modeling the decentralized bi-level multi-objective problem. The first scenario considers the cooperative game as interaction between the players at upper level and the lower level individually. The interaction between the upper and lower level is considered as Stackelberg. On the second scenario, the interaction in the lower level is modeled by Nash game. The sensitivity based method has been used to provide an approximation to the rational reaction set (RRS) for each player. An alternate approach for generating the RRS based on design of experiments (DOE) combined with response surface methodology (RSM) is also explored. Two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the proposed algorithm for the both scenario. It is seen that the proposed sensitivity based approach is able to approximate non linear RRS. For the hierarchical approach, one numerical example is studied to show the application of the algorithm.

Computational offloading is the active research nowadays. To improve the computational offloading and security of data we use game theory approach and 5G enabled edge computing. Edge computing is providing solution across various sectors Such arrangements not just decreases load on the cloud by preparing information on the edge, yet in addition assume a significant job in information security by guaranteeing information correspondence is privately meant system which legitimately interfaces the user equipment, at that point the nearby server sends to the organization’s network core. With organizations and other institutes looking to integrate this edge-focused approach to their communication infrastructure, it is used in collection and managing data securely. This with a combination of 5G and game theory approach we can easily manage the data transmission. Game theory approach helps IoT devices to take decision autonomously and reduce computational offloading.5G is on the rapid development than ever before. Due to its super-fast speeds, high bandwidth, reduced latency and increased capacity over 4G, 5G has the ability to provide greater security and computational offloading than 4G. The 5G network’s speed likely to reach 20-30 times faster than what the 4G network allows. That improvement opens possibilities for far-away sensors to connect and reduce latency through local servers. 5G uses distributed network of base station in small cell infrastructure because of its shorter range. Due to its higher frequency 5G uses new radio spectrum (N-RAM) structure.5G further improves the data security by using network slicing. Thus our experiment in this paper use dynamic computational offloading algorithm to the user equipment which transfer data via 5G.

PurposeAdopting efficient marketing strategies is a challenging task in a competitive market place involving complex marketing planning, techniques and mechanisms to identify the best course of action under these circumstances and finding optimal solutions or stable outcomes. Decisions and strategies of competitors in the market influence the selection of the appropriate marketing strategy. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a mathematical methodology based on the game theory approach for planning optimal marketing-mix strategies in dynamic competitive markets, taking into account strategic foresight and interaction effects.Design/methodology/approachThe game theory approach, as a decision-making tool in conflict situations, is suggested for planning and adopting optimal marketing strategy. The main intellectual attraction of the game theory is essentially a question of how to act in gaming situations against highly rational opponents A kind of static, finite and non-cooperative game analytics approach has been developed for this issue, and the proposed model has been implemented to design optimal marketing strategies for two top brands of the automotive parts market in Iran.FindingsThe findings of this study show that the optimal marketing-mix strategy for brand A is pricing and for brand B is the product strategy.Practical implicationsGame theory and the Nash equilibrium model can provide a practical approach to find and adopt the right strategy, know competitors' movements and strategies and get more profit.Originality/valueThe integration of the game theory approach into the marketing mix framework has been adopted as a generalized model for marketing strategy planning and analysis as well as to resolve some shortcomings of the marketing mix framework. The Nash equilibrium model has been used to analyze the results. The incorporation of game theory into marketing models has the potential to enrich the scope of marketing modeling.

ABSTRACT The Islamic Resistance Movement (AKA: Hamas) has taken control over Gaza Strip, Palestine, in 2007. Since then, the organization was in a continues hit-run conflict against the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF). The conflict is very resistant to any sort of resolution, and Hamas and Israel engage frequently in what it seems an endless cycle of resentment and violence. Despite numerous mediations by global and regional powers, this conflict appears to be further away than ever. This particular conflict can’t be addressed according to the common negotiation theories that based on rationality and hard politics, which seems not that functional. Instead, a model based on the game theory approach is presented in this study to explain this phenomenon. In this work, some facts about Israel - Hamas regional concerns are explained. Moreover, the study analyses the reasons behind Hamas enforcing calm in Gaza, even though Hamas considers Israel as its arch enemy. The presented model shows that whenever Israel and Hamas reach an agreement, both sides can collaborate in maintaining a state of calm. Moreover, results show that the proposed model is applicable to analyse a conflict in terms of actions, duration and terms of settlement.

The Game Theory

The optimum design of stationary flat-plate solar collectors is considered using the game theory approach for multiple objectives. The clear day solar beam radiation and diffuse radiation at the location of the solar collector are estimated. Three objectives are considered in the optimization problem formulation: maximization of the annual average incident solar energy, maximization of the lowest month incident solar energy and minimization of the cost. The game theory solution represents the best compromise in terms of the supercriterion selected. Because some design parameters such as solar constant, altitude, typical day of each month and most of the design variables are not precisely known, a probabilistic approach is also proposed in this work. The results obtained by the determinist and probabilistic approaches are compared. It is found that the absolute value of each objective function decreases with an increase in either the probability of constraint satisfaction or the coefficient of variation of the random variables. This work represents the first work aimed at the application of multi-objective optimization strategy, particularly the game theory approach, for the solution of the solar collector design problem.
