This book deals with two- and three-person bargaining games in characteristic function form and presents two new descriptive theories, the Negotiation Agreement Area and the Proportional Division Payoff Bounds (PDPB). The evaluation of data for two-person games leads to a new descriptive theory...

A new procedure for the maximum-likelihood estimation of dynamic econometric models with errors in both endogenous and exogenous variables is presented in this monograph. A complete analytical development of the expressions used in problems of estimation and verification of models in state-space...

This book presents the state of the art of temporal analysis and cost minimization of projects, as well as project planning under limited resources where the projects are modelled by GERT networks. These projects are characterized by a stochastic evolution structure and possible feedback. The...

This volume contains invited articles and refereed contributions presented at an international workshop held at the University of Pisa in 1988. The subject of the book is generalizations of the classical concept of a convex function. Many of these generalizations are prompted by applications in...

In this book binary functions and their representation by implicants or implicates are described. In particular minimal representations by prime implicants or prime implicates are given. Such representations generalize the minimal representations of the usual Boolean functions. It is shown that...

This book deals with an important topic in economic theory: economic growth and development. It proposes an economic development theory within the framework of input-output systems and neo-classical economics. The standard topics in growth theory are re-examined in the light of newer results in...

In this book a rigorous, systematic, mathematical analysis is presented for oligopoly with multi-product firms in static as well as dynamic frameworks in the light of recent developments in theories of games, oligopoly and industrial organization. The general results derived in this book on...
