Project games (Q5920356)

This research paper is devoted to a direct approach based on cooperative game theory to analyze the allocation issues in delayed project situations, completed with the examination of the opposite setting where the activities may be expedited but not delayed and their combination. Under the assumption that the associated reward and the cost functions are linear with respect to the difference between the planned and the real project times, the authors studied three different models: delayed, expedited and general project games. Some pertinent references complete the study.
