Nash, Princeton University ===================== PRINCETON ACM / IEEE-CS CHAPTERS MARCH 2010 JOINT MEETING Using Large-Scale Computing to Find Equilibrium Solutions in Game Theory John Nash, Princeton University Equilibrium problems in game theory are very useful to the understanding of economics and many other technical fields. In this talk, we will get an introduction to some computational techniques using large scale computing and Mathematica to help us find solutions to equilibrium problems. Dr. John F. Nash is a Senior Research Mathematician at Princeton University. Nash received the 1994 Nobel Prize in Economics for his work in equilibrium problems. Date: Thursday March 18, 2010, 8pm Place: Large Auditorium, Room CS 106, Computer Science Building, Olden and William Streets, Princeton University, Princeton NJ Information: Dennis Mancl (908) 582-7086, Jan Buzydlowski (610) 902-8343 On-line info: http://www.acm.org/chapters/princetonacm All ACM / IEEE-CS meetings are open to the public.
