Trends in the Theory of Decision-Making in Large Systems

This paper sun,nlari:ei the literature dealin' wit!, the niathe,natical aspect of decision-making by a set of agents each of whom has partial information and pariial co,,ttol. At! tlu' agents hate the same utility function. The literature is classified into 3 classes: !ean, 1/lear V. systems whose prototype is the competiiil'e econnohi. and syston,s arroned in a l,ierarc In. An ecaluation of the literature is attenipri'd
