We study two different ways of forming multi-partner alliances between firms with the central idea that procedure is an important factor in multi-partner alliance formation. In the first procedure, an alliance is formed simultaneously, while in the second, step-by-step procedure, members are...

The paper concerns a dynamic model of influence in which agents make a yes-no decision. Each agent has an initial opinion which he may change during different phases of interaction, due to mutual influence among agents. We investigate a model of influence based on aggregation functions. Each...

In the paper, we study a relation between command games proposed by Hu and Shapley and an influence model. We show that our framework of influence is more general than the framework of the command games. We define several influence functions which capture the command structure. These functions...
