Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Multi-agent systems have applications in different areas such as transportation, computer networks, power systems, economics, logistics, and computer games. However, security threats need to be addressed in the design of multi-agent systems while maintaining their efficiency. For example, a malicious agent can cause a significant cost to the system by providing incorrect information to other agents. To address such security concerns, game theoretic solutions can be applied to improve agents’ learning processes. On the other hand, the analysis of cooperation between agents can lead to efficient social welfare by setting proper incentives for agents to satisfy incentive compatibility requirements. Considering the importance of the game theoretic analysis of multi-agent systems in different scenarios, this Special Issue of Games is dedicated to the advances in game theory, multi-agent systems, and computer security. We welcome authors to submit their research on topics including, but not limited to: game theory, mechanism design, multi-agent systems, reinforcement learning, and security games. Below, we list further keywords that may help to identify suitable topics for this Special Issue.
- Multi-agent systems;
- Multi-agent reinforcement learning;
- Security games;
- Information security;
- Mechanism design;
- Coalitional game.
