Summary: This paper proposes a game-theoretic model for community energy management that promotes energy trading among community members. Consumers and vendors are classified within the community, with roles interchangeable based on power consumption profiles. An evolutionary game is used to model consumer dynamics in selecting vendors, with vendors setting competitive prices to attract consumers. The model is tested in a community in Sydney and shows cost savings for consumers and profits for vendors. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of energy trading within a community for financial gains and energy conservation, especially if combined with demand response strategies and storage systems.

Summary: This study focuses on the strategy evolution process of heterogeneous agents in complex networks. The results show that the influence attribute alone cannot change the evolutionary stable states (ESS) of the strategy evolution, while super agents who are both influential and stubborn have the largest impact on the ESS. Furthermore, the proposed model can effectively model the information diffusion process in online social networks.

Summary: In China, the implementation of information-based construction management (ICM) has been hindered by the conflicts of interest between construction enterprises and the government. This study developed an evolutionary game model to promote ICM and identified the optimal stability strategy and key variables. The findings suggest that tangible benefits, reputation, government guidance, and reward and punishment systems are crucial for successful ICM implementation.

Summary: Direct ESS has limitations in repeated games, where the sequence of stage ESSs may not form the direct ESS. We propose a refined ESS definition to address these limitations and establish a foundation for defining ESS in extensive form games. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach in multistage n-person games through a metagame, where the existence of ESS is proven and ESSs are constructed using threat strategies.

Summary: Smart Construction Sites (SCS) play a crucial role in promoting high-quality development. The evolution of SCS is influenced by the government, enterprises, and projects, with factors such as government intervention, enterprise advancement, project participation, and the balance of interests affecting the outcome. The government regulatory system has a significant impact on encouraging enterprises to promote SCS and projects to participate in building an SCS platform.

Summary: This study investigates the strategies and stability of evolutionary equilibrium in the innovation ecosystem based on a group evolutionary game perspective. The findings reveal that the key factors affecting the equilibrium include the difficulty of technology substitution and imitation, the cost of patent operation and maintenance, and government subsidies. Four equilibrium states are observed in the system, and corresponding recommendations are proposed for government and firms to choose appropriate behavioral strategies.

Summary: This study investigates RFID adoption strategies in a decentralized supply chain, revealing that the powerful supplier is more likely to adopt RFID, while suppliers are more likely to forgo the use of RFID under intense upstream competition. The equilibrium RFID adoption strategy can bring all supply chain members to a Pareto optimal outcome when inventory availability rates are low or one is close to 1 while the other is low.

Summary: Game theory provides a mathematical approach to analyze stakeholders' interactions, but its application in construction engineering and management research is lacking thorough investigation. This paper presents an overview of current game-theoretic models in CEM research and uses Social Network Analysis to identify trends and gaps for future research. The study highlights the contributions of game theory in various CEM applications and suggests further investigation into interactions among CEM stakeholders in different project delivery systems.

Summary: This paper introduces a simultaneous multi-criteria optimization approach for scheduling linear infrastructure projects, which provides planners with non-dominated alternatives and tradeoffs to minimize project duration, cost, interruptions, and unit delivery delays. The approach utilizes Genetic Algorithms and Pareto Front sorting to explore a wider range of solutions compared to existing models, aiding planners in proposing optimal sets of schedules.
