By Alain Haurie, Georges Zaccour

Dynamic video games proceed to draw powerful curiosity from researchers attracted to modelling aggressive in addition to clash events displaying an intertemporel element. functions of dynamic video games have confirmed to be an appropriate method to review the behaviour of gamers (decision-makers) and to foretell the end result of such events in lots of components together with engineering, economics, administration technology, army, biology and political science.

Dynamic video games : idea and functions collects 13 articles written through confirmed researchers. it truly is a superb reference for researchers and graduate scholars masking quite a lot of rising and revisited difficulties in either cooperative and non-cooperative video games in numerous parts of purposes, specifically in economics and administration science.
