The Regime of Rural Ecotourism Stakeholders in Poverty-Stricken Areas of China: Implications for Rural Revitalization

The rural ecotourism system can be defined as a complex association of stakeholders. This system of rural ecotourism in relatively poor areas of China can influence rural revitalization strategies. The purpose of this study is to plan a rural ecotourism system among the tourism enterprises, local residents and government by using an evolutionary game theory. Based on the theoretical analysis, an evolution game model for the three stakeholders is developed and the evolution process of strategies is described by replicator dynamic equations. Then, a simulation method and case was used to analyze the stability of interactions among the stakeholders and determine an equilibrium solution in the finite rationality case. Finally, specific control strategies were proposed to suppress instability and an ideal evolutionarily stable strategy was obtained. This provides a theoretical basis for achieving a win-win situation among the three parties. The results of this study suggest appropriate roles for stakeholders in the rural ecotourism project that provide management implications for rural tourism activities, local economy and rural revitalization.

Evolutionary Game Analysis of Knowledge Sharing in Low-Carbon Innovation Network

Low-carbon technological innovation is the main means to develop a low-carbon economy, and network knowledge sharing and collaborative innovation is an effective model for the development of low-carbon technologies. First of all, this article adopts a decision-making experiment and evaluation laboratory method and interpretation structure model, combines the two methods, extracts the advantages of the two, and discards the shortcomings of the two, thus constructing a new optimized and upgraded interpretation structure model. We give methods to explore the main influencing factors of collaborative innovation of low-carbon technologies for online knowledge sharing. Based on the industrial network knowledge sharing and cooperation network environment, the network evolution game model of network knowledge sharing knowledge collaboration is constructed to study the rewards and punishments, the profit distribution rate, the knowledge potential difference, and the parameter pairing of the network knowledge sharing cooperation network structure in the process of network knowledge sharing and collaborative knowledge innovation. The influence of the network knowledge sharing cooperation strategy is obtained through simulation to change the size of the relevant parameters so that the network knowledge sharing cooperation agent chooses the network evolution game of the sharing strategy to realize the optimal evolutionary stable strategy. According to the simulation results, this article proposes suggestions from the following aspects, aiming to improve the overall knowledge synergy effect of the network knowledge sharing and cooperation network.

Research on innovation management of science and technology innovation team members based on constructive conflict evolution game

How to give full play to the positive function of constructive conflicts (task conflicts and process conflicts) in the science and technology innovation team, give appropriate stimulation, mobilize the enthusiasm of employees and improve the team’s innovative ability to improve team performance and organizational effectiveness are issues that deserve both team leaders’ and scholars’ attention. Through selecting multiple medical technology R&D personnel from a specific science and technology innovation team of health organization, the research studies the constructive conflicts among the members of the science and technology innovation team, constructs and analyzes the conflict evolution game model, proposes countermeasures and suggestions for improving the innovation ability of the science and technology innovation team and discusses the innovation management mechanism of the science and technology innovation team. The study shows that task conflicts, process conflicts and innovation game decisions cannot be avoided. The unstable choice of members does not promote innovation. However, on the one hand, constructive conflicts can be controlled to maintain a moderate state of control. On the other hand, it is also necessary to establish a mutually trusting communication environment and convenient communication channels in the science and technology innovation team, combined with modern information management technology, to handle the problems that were difficult to be found or accumulated for a long time under the previous management mechanism and cooperate with the science and technology innovation team to improve the technology innovation team’s innovation capability.

Dynamic Evolution Game of Travelers’ Air-to-HSR Choice under the Scenario of HSR Speed-Up

With the technological advancement, China’s high-speed rail (HSR) has achieved a higher running speed than ever before, which at the same time leads to the intensive competition between air and high-speed rail with trips within 500–1000 km, as well as to the significant changes of travelers’ air-to-HSR choice. In order to explore the dynamic adaptation of travelers’ choice of high-speed rail (HSR) and air in the case of HSR speed-up, a logit dynamics model of travelers’ choice based on evolutionary game was constructed to describe the evolution of travelers’ choice. With HSR-air travel time and the ticket price of origin-destination (OD) points of Beijing-Shanghai as the benchmark, the study set up two scenarios of HSR speed-up and compared and analyzed their payoffs in value. On the basis of mathematical simulation, the travelers’ “air-to-HSR choice” and the change of competition range under the background of HSR speed-up were both discussed. The result indicated that the HSR speed-up would attract more travelers, and its share rate would rise to 58.31% and 72.73%, respectively, with HSR running speed increasing to 400 and 600 km/h; the marginal utility of HSR speed-up is more obvious, and in the meantime, the increase of HSR running speed extends the intense HSR-air competition range to longer-distance travels. In the case of HSR speed-up, travelers’ choice changes as well. The HSR operators themselves should formulate reasonable ticket prices and improve their management. At the same time, the air operators should adjust their operation plan in time.

Research on evolution game of clothing enterprises’ carbon emission reduction investment considering free riding behavior

“low carbon economy” puts forward new requirements for carbon emission reduction in all links of the supply chain. This paper takes the three-level clothing supply chain composed of government, supplier and manufacturer as the research object, considering the “free riding behavior” of clothing supplier and manufacturer, by constructing the three-party evolutionary game model, using the replication dynamic equation to analyze the evolution process of the three actors, and studies the influence of parameter change on the strategy selection of each agent. Finally, the simulation is carried out by Matlab. The results show that the strategies are affected by the government’s punishment, the “free ride” revenue of suppliers and manufacturers, and the cost of carbon emission reduction investment. Finally, based on the analysis results, some suggestions are put forward for enterprises to invest in carbon emission reduction.

Strategy of BIM Building Operation and Maintenance Management Based on LV-EG Model

BIM technology can make building operation and maintenance (O&M) more efficient. This paper analyzes the evolution game (EG) of the three parties related to the O&M of the building. At the same time, it deduces the diffusion (LV) of the O&M management mode of the market in this condition by finding the evolutionary stable points under different conditions. Through the analysis of relevant conditions, the result of BIM-O&M diffusion is obtained as follows: complete market possession, partial market possession, and exit market three kinds of diffusion results, which provides a reference for the future development of BIM-O&M management in China.

Research on the Niche Evolution Game of Ecological Community Innovation of Corporate Venture Capital Based on Logistic Extended Complexity Model

With the gestation and development of new technologies, new products, new formats, and new models, venture capital investment, as one of the most important forms of open innovation in large companies, plays an increasingly important role in the innovation of mature large companies and entrepreneurial enterprises. To deal with the complex and dynamic environment, the niche of Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) ecological community is investigated from the perspective of the innovation ecosystem. By analyzing the innovation of CVC ecological community with the use of the logistic expansion model, this paper analyzes the stability of evolution game through the replicator dynamic equation and discusses ten parameters of niche state. In the end, we conclude that there are four optimization strategies in the coevolution of major corporations and entrepreneurial firms, namely, niche separation, niche expansion, niche K-R, and niche alliance.
