Inhalt
Inhalt: The chapters in this volume explore how the methods of game theory can be utilized to optimize security and risk-management strategies.  Emphasizing the importance of connecting theory and practice, they detail the steps involved in selecting, adapting, and analyzing game-theoretic models in security engineering and provide case studies of successful implementations in different application domains.  Practitioners who are not experts in game theory and are uncertain about incorporating it into their work will benefit from this resource, as well as researchers in applied mathematics and computer science interested in current developments and future directions.
The first part of the book presents the theoretical basics, covering various different game-theoretic models related to and suitable for security engineering.  The second part then shows how these models are adopted, implemented, and analyzed.  Several different application areas are covered in these chapters, including surveillance systems, interconnected networks, and power grids.  Finally, in the third part, case studies of some successful applications of game-theoretic models to real-life problems are presented, and the range of applications discussed is expanded to include such areas as cloud computing, internet-of-things, and water utility networks.
