6th International Conference on Game Theory for Networks
May 10-12, 2016, Kelowna, BC, Canada
http://gamenets.org/2016/show/home ********************************************************************

AIMS AND SCOPE

-----------------------------
Game theory has recently become a useful tool for modeling and studying various networks. The past decade has witnessed a huge explosion of interest in issues that intersect networks and game theory. With the rapid growth of data traffic, from any kind
of devices and networks, game theory is requiring more intelligent transformation.

This conference, which will be held in Kelowna, encourages archival quality papers that advance the state-of-the-art and practical applications of intelligent game theory. The goal is to gather research contributions, from game theory and networks, that
address the major opportunities and challenges in applying traditional game theory as well as intelligent game theory to the understanding and designing of modern network systems, with emphasis on both new analytical techniques and novel application
scenarios. We encourage prospective authors to submit their original, unpublished work.

Highlights

The event is endorsed by the European Alliance for Innovation, a leading community-based organization devoted to the advancement of innovation in the field of ICT.
All accepted papers will be published by Springer and made available through Springer Link Digital Library, one of the world's largest scientific libraries.
Proceedings are submitted for inclusion to the leading indexing services: DBLP, Google Scholar, Thomson Scientific ISI Proceedings, EI Elsevier Engineering Index, CrossRef, Scopus, as well as ICST's own EU Digital Library (EUDL).
The authors of the best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their work through one of the following EAI endorsed publications:
EAI Endorsed Transactions on Serious Games.
ACM/Springer Mobile Networks & Applications (MONET) Special Issue on "Game Theory for 5G Wireless Networks" .
