Book Description
From the January 2003 symposium come just over 100 papers addressing a range of topics related to discrete algorithms. Examples of topics covered include packing Steiner trees, counting inversions in lists, directed scale-free graphs, quantum property testing, and improved results for directed multicut. The papers were not formally refereed, but attempts were made to verify major results. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Randomization and Computation in Strategic Settings
Author: Shaddin Faris Dughmi
Publisher: Stanford University
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
This thesis considers the following question: In large-scale systems involving many self-interested participants, how can we effectively allocate scarce resources among competing interests despite strategic behavior by the participants, as well as the limited computational power of the system? Work at the interface between computer science and economics has revealed a fundamental tension between the economic objective, that of achieving the goals of the system designer despite strategic behavior, and the computational objective, that of implementing aspects of the system efficiently. In particular, this tension has been most apparent in systems that allocate resources deterministically. The realization that careful use of randomization can reconcile economic and computational goals is the starting point for this thesis. Our contributions are twofold: (1) We design randomized mechanisms for several fundamental problems of resource allocation; our mechanisms perform well even in the presence of strategic behavior, and can be implemented efficiently. (2) En route to our results, we develop new and flexible techniques for exploiting the power of randomization in the design of computationally-efficient mechanisms for resource allocation in strategic settings.

Pages : 1025
Book Description
The ability to understand and predict behavior in strategic situations, in which an individual's success in making choices depends on the choices of others, has been the domain of game theory since the 1950s. Developing the theories at the heart of game theory has resulted in 8 Nobel Prizes and insights that researchers in many fields continue to develop. In Volume 4, top scholars synthesize and analyze mainstream scholarship on games and economic behavior, providing an updated account of developments in game theory since the 2002 publication of Volume 3, which only covers work through the mid 1990s. - Focuses on innovation in games and economic behavior - Presents coherent summaries of subjects in game theory - Makes details about game theory accessible to scholars in fields outside economics
