We will use all three of these in the following analysis, but in the context of a repeated game. Thus, a distinction must be made between strategies that would be rational if the game were played only once and... 

Repeated Game Game that occurs through iterations, either indefinitely or with a finite ending point. 

Future research will be aimed at extending the current MXSTRJiC model to incorporate the case of repeated games. In so doing, it will be possible to simulate realistic scenarios in which continuous attacks are directed to the same supply chain, e.g. the repeated attacks performed on a specific critical pipeline infrastructure Talarico et al. (2014). Moreover, additional real-life constraints can be included in the model such as a limited budged for security (or for the attacks), criticality of the infrastructures constituting the whole supply chain and so forth. Additional information about the characteristics of the transported goods can be included in the model. As a matter of fact, the hazardousness of these materials can influence the consequences of a potential attack. 

But we can play this game repeatedly, since there are endless possible properties that can arbitrarily be called o and . Unless there is a well-defined measure of specialness, by... 

The evolution of cooperation is frequently analysed in terms of the repeated Prisoner s Dilemma game. Computer simulations show that the emergence of cooperation is a robust phenomenon. However, the strategy which eventually gets adopted in the population seems to depend sensitively on fine details of the modelling process, so that it becomes difficult to predict the evolutionary outcome in real populations.

Most team games (e.g. soccer, rugby, hockey, football) and some individual sports (e.g. squash, tennis) involve intermittent high-intensity bursts of exercise interspersed with rest periods (i.e. mostly less intense periods), although the whole period of activity can be very long. These are known as multiple sprint sports. In experiments that involved a study of short bursts of activity followed by short rest periods, repeated for 30 minutes, the increase in blood...

Volunteers treated with reboxetine might be more co-operative and submissive to strangers which might help them to get on with people who are not known to them.. Social behaviour after reboxetine treatment could therefore be constructive to friendship development. The failure of 2 weeks reboxetine treatment to increase co-operative social behaviour on the Mixed-Motive game might lie in the fact that the difference between the points which the subjects awarded to themselves and to the confederate was very small. In the repeated dose reboxetine study, the subjects awarded the confederate more after both placebo and reboxetine. The subjects in this study therefore appear to be very co-operative, irrespective of treatment. 

For some variables, for example, the relative collision velocity, the cumulative distribution function does not have closed form, and then a third Monte Carlo method must be adopted. Here, another random number R is used to provide a value of v, but a decision on whether to accept this value is made on the outcome of a game of chance against a second random number. The probability that a value is accepted is proportional to the probability density in the statistical distribution at that value. The procedure is repeated until the game of chance is won, and the successful value of v is then incorporated into the set of starting parameters. 

One missing piece in a 4 X 4 array. The object of the game is to slide a piece into the hole and then repeat the process until the numbers appear in order. 

Play the consolidation game. As more and more segments become like commodities, the pattern followed by commodities is likely to be repeated. This means that there is likely to be a continuous process of consolidation in order to gain... 

In one sense the logic is compelling. If (i) the game is played only once, (ii) the actors are motivated solely by the payoff in the matrix and (iii) they behave rationally, collective action mMSf fail. By contraposition, we might look into the possibilities for collective action if the interaction is repeated several times if the payoffs that motivate the actors differ from the material reward structure and if the behaviour is less than fully rational. It turns out that under all these conditions, collective action does become possible. The three cases correspond to what was referred to earlier as rationaIity-cum-selfishness rationality simpliciter and irrationality.
