Welcome to the Behavioral and Quantitative Game Theory: Conference on Future Directions web site.

In the last decade or so we have witnessed a resurgence of novel game theory applications and analysis in three main areas:

• Algorithmic games as viewed by the computer science community.
• Behavioral/Psychological/Epistemic games that include significant experimental work.
• Supply chain games (inventory/logistic networks, production, and yield management games, among others).

The main purpose of this workshop is to create a "meeting place" conductive to cross-pollination of ideas from game theory in operations management and logistics, behavioral game theory, and algorithmic game theory. Since these streams are quite new – all three emerged in the last decade or so - there is a very strong impetus for learning and exchange from one arena to another.

The increasing volume of academic research, as indicated by recent number of papers published in the top journals of each of the disciplines, clearly indicates both the interest and the need for a common workshop where the `hot’ topics will be exposed not just to the members of a particular discipline but across disciplines. While one may stake a claim for more coherence among participants and topics, empirical findings show that this may result in clustering and exclusion. Findings also show that heterogeneity ought to lead to a larger involvement with respect to broader interest and participation. Thus, this workshop’s mixing of three separate academic communities linked together by their common game-theory base ought to create a fertile environment that moves forward the academic frontiers of their individual disciplines.

Sincerely,
Moshe Dror and Greys Sosic, Conference Co-Chairs

The Institute for Advanced Study and DIMACS are sponsoring a workshop on “Decentralized Mechanism Design, Distributed Computing, and Cryptography”, which focuses on issues at the boundaries of these three areas. We hope to bring together researchers in computer science and game theory, who have been working on related topics, largely unaware of each other’s efforts, for over 20 years.

The workshop will be held on Thursday June 3 and Friday June 4, 2010, at the Nassau Inn, Princeton. We plan to have a relatively light schedule of speakers, allowing plenty of time for interaction between participants.

If you are interested in attending the workshop, please send an email to dcc.workshop {at} gmail(.)com, preferably before January, 25, 2010. Although registration is free, the number of attendees will be limited; we want to keep the workshop small to allow lots of interaction. We will respond to emails by January 31, 2010, once we get a sense of the numbers.

Note that there will be a workshop on Mechanism Design at Princeton on June 4-5, organized by Eric Maskin and Stephen Morris; see http://www.princeton.edu/econtheorycenter/conferences/mechanismdesign/. We will try to coordinate some activities between the workshops.

The Economic Theory Center at Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study will be sponsoring a conference on mechanism design on Friday June 4 and Saturday June 5, 2010. The conference will be examining developments in the theory and application of mechanism design.

There will be a light schedule of papers, with plenty of opportunity for interaction between speaking and non-speaking participants.

We invite submissions for the conference. Authors should submit papers by first logging into Conference Maker and uploading a PDF document. Submissions should be received by January 31, 2010, and we hope to have a preliminary program by February 28th.

The conference will take place on the campus of the Institute for Advanced Study. Reasonable travel and accommodation costs of participants will be covered.

The Fourteenth International Symposium on Dynamic Games and Applications, a three day conference, will be held at The Banff Centre, Banff, Alberta, Canada during June 20-22, 2010. The three day technical program will consist of plenary sessions, invited sessions, and presentations of contributed papers in several topics on Game Theory and its Applications. The conference will be followed by a one-day tutorial on June 23, 2010.

The International Symposium on Dynamic Games and Applications is a biennial professional event. The first one was held in 1984 in Haifa, Israel. It was followed by meetings in Williamsburg, USA (1986), Antibes, France (1988), Espoo, Finland (1990), Grimentz, Switzerland (1992), St. Jovite, Canada (1994), Kanagawa, Japan (1996), Maastricht, The Netherlands (1998), Adelaide, South Australia (2000), and St. Petersburg Russia (2002), Tucson, USA (2004), Sophia Antipolis, France (2006), Wroclaw, Poland (2008).

Aims of the Conference

This is the ninth in a series of conferences on the applications of logical methods to foundational issues in the theory of individual and interactive decision-making. Preference is given to papers which bring together the work and problems of several fields, such as game and decision theory, logic, computer science and artificial intelligence, philosophy, cognitive psychology, mathematics and mind sciences.

The previous eight conferences took place at CIRM (Marseille, France) in January 1994, at ICER (Torino, Italy) in December 1996, December 1998, July 2000 and July 2002, in Leipzig in July 2004, in Liverpool in July 2006 and in Amsterdam in 2008 (see: http://www.econ.ucdavis.edu/faculty/bonanno/loft.html)

Among the topics of particular relevance are:

• Modal logics for games and protocols: epistemic and deontic logic, multi-agent logic, temporal logic, dynamic logic, probabilistic and multivalued logic, logic of belief revision.
• Foundations of game and decision theory: epistemic foundations of solution concepts, information processing and communication in games, belief formation and revision in games.
• Learning and information-processing models: economic aspects of information processing, learning in game-theoretic contexts, inductive learning and inductive decision making.
• Bounded rationality approaches to game and decision theory.

Welcome to SING 6

The organizing committee has the pleasure of inviting you to participate in the 6th Spain, Italy and Netherlands meeting on Game Theory (SING 6). The meeting will be held at the University of Palermo, from July 7 to 9, 2010. The meeting is under the auspices of IEEE (CSS and SMC), SIDRA, AIRO, Università di Bergamo, Universita "Ca' Foscari" Venezia.

SING 6 is the sixth in the series of Spain-Italy-Netherlands Meetings on Game Theory. Presentations will focus on new research directions in different disciplines. The meeting provides an avenue where new research collaborations can be forged.

Game Theory is a mathematical framework dealing with models of conflict and cooperation among interdependent decision makers. It is a central tool for economics and the social sciences, poses challenging research questions in mathematics, control, and optimization, and is applied across a wide variety of fields, including neuroscience, phi-losophy, and biology.

The organizing committe of SING6 has the pleasure to extend the meeting to engineers working in the field of game theory. The aim is to stimulate discussions on the topic from different and complementary perspectives.
