The Formation And The Stability Of Whole-Set Equipment Supply-Chain

The method of joint bidding is extensively used in supply for large scale project,defense equipment,designing and manufacturing of whole-set equipment and so on.the thesis will introduce coalition game theory to the modeling of whole-set equipment supply-chain.Then we'll study the procurement of the whole-set equipment,the strategies of players among the supply chain,and the stability of the coalition they formed.The thesis first presents the theory of coalition formation,externality,coalition structure and their applications,reviews works which are related to the thesis.We learn their contribution and point out the shortcomings.Then we summarize the literatures on technology innovation,and post our research question at last.The third chapter of the thesis studies the cooperation and competition of players at the same hierarchy,and comes to a conclusion at the condition of symmetric players and asymmetric players respectively.The research of forth chapter of the thesis focuses on complete information game,besides there are technology transformations during the formation of the coalition.We assume the players are all farsighted, and study their strategies,the coalition structures and the stability of the coalition.We relax the condition at chapter five,and study on the practical instance.The players will take the strategy based on former player's action;they will correct their believe about their competitors according their action.We will combine the concept of perfect Bayesian Nash equilibrium and farsighted,then a new concept of farsighted equilibrium will be given.We have given strategies to the players at the same hierarchy and among the supply chain,especially the instance tells that our model is applicable.We hope the research can be used to deal with the problem of formation of alliance in whole-set equipment procurements bidding and the distribution of the coalition structure value.But the condition of the native market is executively that we can control the market,so we can also study the relationships between the market and the technology innovation next.We can use a parameter to stand for the extends to which the technology have been mastered,and assumed the market opened is according to this parameter.If we haven't got the technology they had transferred,we will not open our market at the next stage.Otherwise,if we mastered the technology we will open our market completely.
