Abstract:
The paper discusses one approach to the solution of two-player discrete dynamic games. Each player has prescribed dynamics and a capture set. The game is formulated as a zero sum game with a simultaneous move structure, thus allowing for mixed strategies. The computer algorithm utilizes a backing up process, reducing the solution of the multistage dynamic game to the solution of many two-player matrix games. Results obtained for specific examples are discussed. The optimal strategy (a probability distribution in the case of mixed strategies) and the optimal value (expected value for mixed strategies) are calculated for the complete game state for each discrete time step. A second computer program allows the game to be played with the aid of a computer driven graphic display. (Author)
