Contents:

Introduction to game theory -- Decision making and utility theory -- Strategic form games -- Repeated and Markov games -- Convergence to equilibrium: potential games -- Future directions.

Summary: The application of mathematical analysis to wireless networks has met with limited success, due to the complexity of mobility and traffic models, coupled with the dynamic topology and the unpredictability of link quality that characterize such networks. The ability to model individual, independent decision makers whose actions potentially affect all other decision makers makes game theory particularly attractive to analyze the performance of ad hoc networks.
