Weekly Project Dashboard: Project Name: Risk-Sensitive Model & Games on Dynamic Graphs

1. Weekly Project Dashboard: Project Name: Risk-Sensitive Model & Games on Dynamic Graphs Name: Jeffrey Hudack Date: 4/20/2012 G Key Accomplishments for this Reporting Period Explored literature on Games on Dynamic Geometric Graphs - Almost all approaches use the PD game - No repeated games - Strategy changes based on knowledge of the payoffs other agents receive Installed TinyOS to explore as a possible MA simulation. Too much focus on hardware to allow for rapid prototyping. Installed Repast and implemented RGG logic. Found it to be a very well-written environment with many desirable qualities. Plans for Next Reporting Period • Continue to review and refine paper for conference submission • Complete the Dynamic RGG simulation in Repast • Add game theoretic interactions • Validate the results of existing approaches to game play on dynamic RGGs • Check Points & Milestones Status Start Fcst.End • Submit RSU Paper to ECAI Green 5/25 • ICAART 2013 Unknown 5/9 7/24 • Proposal Defense Spring 2013 • Dissertation Defense Fall 2013 Plans Beyond Next Reporting Period Continue to shift focus of RGG work to game theoretic interactions on dynamic graphs. Research Issues • The effects of changing networks on repeated interactions between agents • The locality of graph changes in an RGG will lead to a stronger influence on groups of agents and their neighbors • Characterizing the rate of change of the network as a function of number of moving agents and their velocity
