SoCal NEGT Symposium 2015
Sat, Oct 31, 2015
Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science
Workshops & Infosessions
Registration Required.
Full event program can be found HERE.
This symposium will bring together students, professors, and researchers from Southern California, who apply game theory to analyze, design, and assess the performance of networks. We hope to highlight synergies between various related research areas and encourage discussions regarding the benefits and limitations of game theory as a performance assessment and design tool for networks. Both the application of game theory to networking problems and the development of new game-theoretic methodologies that can be applied in that context are of interest. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Distributed network resource allocation
Trust and reputation management
Security assessment and enhancement
Dynamic spectrum assignment and management
Cognitive radio networks
Dynamic topology formation in networks
Incentives for cooperation in networks
Node mobility and route adaptation
Fairness in forwarding and medium access
Peer to peer and overlay networks
Network pricing
Multiple service provider interactions
Powerline communication networks
Electrical power networks
Formation of social networks
Biological networks
Biologically-inspired network design
Applicability and limitations of game theory in the networking domain
Algorithmic game theory
Equilibrium selection among multiple equilibria
Paradigms of bounded rationality and consequences
S-modular and potential games
Price of anarchy
Games of imperfect or asymmetric information
Learning mechanisms in games
Computation of Nash, correlated, and market equilibria
Preference elicitation and winner determination in combinatorial auctions
Stackelberg games
Cooperative game theoretical models
Multi-stage and repeated games

MEGA Graduate Symposium
Sat, Oct 31, 2015 @ 09:30 AM - 03:30 PM
Viterbi School of Engineering Student Organizations
Student Activity
Are you considering furthering your education by going to graduate school? Or maybe you're not sure whether to choose industry or academia after graduation? Whether or not you have questions about your career path, make sure you come out to our Graduate Development Symposium, cohosted by the Minority Engineering Graduate Association (MEGA), to gain more insight on how best to prepare for graduate studies as well as become more familiar with the application process. We will have current graduate students as well as professors and even a representative from industry to speak about their experiences and suggestions for prospective students. Of course lunch will be provided, and there will also be opportunities to win prizes! We also plan on socializing afterwards to celebrate Halloween and possibly watch the Cal vs. USC game, with details to come. If you would like to attend please RSVP.
Location: University Park Campus TCC 350-352
Audiences: Everyone Is Invited
