ATMUS GAME THEORY TOURNAMENT
Prisoners’ Dilemma Multi Round Situation
ATMUS GAME THEORY TOURNAMENT
Strategy Generator allows students to create• Standard strategies e.g. Hawk• Standard strategies e.g. Tit for Tat• Non-standard strategies: e.g. an average based strategy
ATMUS GAME THEORY TOURNAMENT
Tournament Presenter allows to run the tournament in the class room in different settings. Here we will choose:• Uninterrupted Tournament• Round Robin• 20 rounds for each match-up
