Experience of the game theory application in construction management

Abstract

The game theory allows mathematical solutions of conflict situations. Besides the fairly established application to economical problems, approaches to problems in construction operation have been worked out. An overview of applications is given. Solution strategies for such engineering problems are collected. Furthermore, concrete application examples are presented and an overview of further potential applications is given. Solutions of two‐person zero‐sum games are discussed as well as approaches to fuzzy games.

Santrauka

Lošimu teorija teikia matematiniu sprendimu konfliktinese situacijose. Straipsnyje pateikta daug ekonominiu problemu sprendimo pavyzdžiu, sukurtu statybos valdymo problemu sprendimo metodiku. Atlikta šiu tyrimu apžvalga, surinktos minetu inžineriniu problemu sprendimo strategijos. Pateikiami konkretūs teorijos taikymo pavyzdžiai dabarties salygomis ir ateityje. Aptariami “dvieju asmenu nulines sumos” lošimu sprendiniai, taip pat neapibrežtu aibiu teorijos taikymo lošimuose atveju.
