报告题目：Game Theory and Homeland Security Resource Allocation

报告摘要：

Hundreds of billions of U.S. dollars have been allocated to homeland security since 9/11/2001. How to optimally allocate these resources remains a challenging issue, especially considering the fact that adversaries are intelligent and adaptive. We will present an application of game theory to identify equilibrium strategies for resource allocation to counter both terrorism and natural disasters. We will also briefly discuss models of secrecy and deception, games between defenders, and the relationship of that work to supply chain management.
