Further open problems in cooperative games
Journal Title: Operations Research and Decisions - Year 2014, Vol 24, Issue 4
Abstract
In 2013, the International Game Theory Review published two special issues on open problems in cooperative games: the first regarding theory and the second applications. In this paper, our aim is to present some problems currently “on our table” that were not included in the two issues mentioned above, either because the topics were too specific or they arose after publication. The problems are divided into theoretical problems, general models that may be applied to different fields and applicative problems.

Decisions involving databases, fuzzy databases and codatabases
The authors consider the following three ways of decision making: (i) decisions involving databases by means of standard tools of sequential logic and universal algebra; (ii) deci sions involvingfuzzy databases by means...
Resilience planning as an opportunity for future sustainable development in tourism
Sustainable development is a theoretical concept, but the possibility of implementing it depends on skills and practical solutions. One practical solution is interdisciplinary planning. The basic criterion for the succes...
Using a multicriteria interactive approach in scheduling non-critical activities
A typical project consists of many activities. Logical dependencies cause some of them to be critical and some non-critical. While critical activities have a strict start time, in some projects the problem of selecting t...
The number of stable matchings in models of the Gale-Shapley type with preferences given by partial orders
From the famous Gale–Shapley theorem we know that each classical marriage problem admits at least one stable matching. This fact has inspired researchers to search for the maximum number of possible stable matchings, whi...
Optimal ordering quantities for substitutable items under joint replenishment with cost of substitution
An inventory system of two mutually substitutable items has been studied where an item is out of stock, demand for it is met by the other item and any part of demand not met due to unavailability of the other item is los...
