摘要:Professor John von Neumann said that「任何事件只要o定了外在l件和⑴c

Two interesting game models are used to illustrate the idea of modeling games involving well-known problems. One is the two-person knapsack game for investment decision making based on the famous knapsack problem in combinatorial optimization. The other one is the two-newsvendor game for supply chain management based on Edgeworth-Arrow-Harris-Marshak’s newsboy problem in inventory control. Models, mathematics and managerial insights will be discussed.
