The proposed research program deals with: - The modeling of industrial systems involving few players having interdependent payoffs. - The determination and the computation of equilibrium solutions for systems characterized by a non cooperative mode of play. - The design of mechanisms, that satisfy certain required properties (e.g., optimality, fairness), for sharing and sustaining over time cooperative outcomes when coordination of strategies is feasible. The research addresses theoretical and computational issues as well as applied problems posed in the areas of: - Environmental management (e.g., coordination of emission strategies among countries, regions or provinces). - Distribution channels (e.g., conflict and cooperation in marketing networks, remanufacturing and supply chain coordination, etc.). As the problems involve few actors and are highly dynamic, the natural methodological frameworks are those of dynamic game theory and mathematical programming. The contribution of this research program is twofold. At the conceptual level, understanding how an environmental agreement can be built and sustained is a key concern for academic researchers, policy makers and society in general. Recent events have shown that designing agreements so that players do not have an incentive to defect is crucial for protecting the environment for future generations. Similarly, devising mechanisms aimed at eliminating the inefficiencies inherent to a lack of coordination in supply chains is of clear value to business, as well as to scholars with an interest in mechanism design. At the algorithmic level, the developments will be useful to researchers working in the areas of the proposal and to researchers working in other areas, on problems with similar mathematical structures.

拟议的研究方案涉及： - 工业系统的建模涉及几个具有相互依赖收益的参与者。 - 以非合作博弈模式为特征的系统平衡解的确定和计算。 - 机构的设计，满足某些所需的属性（例如，最优性，公平性），用于在策略协调可行时随着时间的推移共享和维持合作成果。 该研究解决了理论和计算问题，以及在以下领域提出的应用问题： - 环境管理（例如，协调国家、区域或省份之间的排放战略）。 - 分销渠道（例如，营销网络中的冲突与合作、再制造和供应链协调等）。 由于这些问题涉及的参与者很少，而且是高度动态的，自然的方法框架是动态博弈论和数学规划。 这项研究计划的贡献是双重的。在概念一级，了解如何建立和维持环境协定是学术研究人员、决策者和整个社会关注的一个关键问题。最近的事件表明，设计协议，使参与者没有背叛的动机，对于为子孙后代保护环境至关重要。同样，设计旨在消除供应链缺乏协调所固有的低效率的机制，对企业以及对机制设计感兴趣的学者来说，显然具有价值。在算法层面上，这些发展将有助于在该提案领域工作的研究人员以及在其他领域工作的研究人员，研究具有类似数学结构的问题。
