Abstract

In the paper, a new class of dynamic game models with a moving information horizon or dynamic updating is studied. In this class of games, players do not have full information about the game structure (motion equations, payoff functions) on the interval on which the game is defined. It is supposed that the players at each stage of the dynamic game have only truncated information about the game structure defined by the information horizon. Cooperative and noncooperative settings are considered in the paper. Results are illustrated using the oligopoly advertising game model, and comparison between the solution in the initial game model and in the game model with moving information horizon is presented. Simulation results are presented.
