Preface
Game theoretic analysis of congestion, safety, and security is an interdisciplinary undertaking. Many researchers working on congestion have not extensively considered safety/security, and vice versa. However, significant interactions exist between the two research areas, which motivated this book. This book is intended to establish a new and enhanced current state of affairs within this topic, illustrate linkages between research approaches, and lay the foundation for subsequent research. Congestion (excessive crowding) is defined broadly to include all kinds of flows; e.g., road/sea/air traffic, people, data, information, water, electricity, and organisms. The book considers systems where congestion occurs, systems which may be in parallel, series, interlinked, or interdependent, with flows one way or both ways.
