The Evolutionary Game for Collaborative Innovation of the IoT Industry under Government Leadership in China: An IoT Infrastructure Perspective

Abstract

Since the United States, the European Union, China, and other countries put forward the development strategy of Internet of Things (IoT), it has been growing rapidly, leading to industrial restructuring and the sustainable development of various industries. Not only can collaborative innovation of the IoT industry accelerate R&D efficiency and product substitution frequency of IoT infrastructure, but also it can promote the construction of smart cities, the application of Big Data and Cloud Computing, and the development of 5G. In China, government is a leader and initiator of IoT infrastructure deployment. Therefore, in this paper, we construct an evolutionary game model of the IoT industry under government leadership represented by government, telecom equipment manufacturers, and telecom operators. Then, we analyze the asymptotic stability, equilibrium stability, and evolutionary stability strategy of the model. Finally, we carry out numerical simulation to investigate the effect of eight factors and four mechanisms on evolutionary behaviors of the three parties. The results show each factor has a different influence on them. Evolutionary game model offers ideas for government and industry subjects before the collaborative innovation of IoT infrastructure deployment in practice.

Research on Collaborative Governance of Smart Government Based on Blockchain Technology: An Evolutionary Approach

“…Subsequently, they verified game models and theoretical results based on numerical examples, case studies, and empirical analysis, respectively. Wan and Qie [40] and Hou and Li [41] investigated the tripartite game between the government smart financial poverty alleviation ecosystem and the collaborative innovation system of IoT. As impacted by the different research perspectives and points of departure, the existing studies failed to consider the optimization effect of emerging technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, and blockchain) on smart platform systems, as well as the interactive decision-making behaviour and evolutionary stable state of intelligent platform system participants under the novel technology.…”

Chain Innovation Mechanism of the Manufacturing Industry in the Yangtze River Delta of China Based on Evolutionary Game

“…Hou and Li believed that the government was an advocate of IoT infrastructure construction in China. They established an evolutionary game model that included the government, manufacturers, and operators, and the results showed that each factor had a different impact on them [49]. Li et al built a game model that included enterprises, academic institutions, and governments to explore the impact of government subsidies on innovation [50].…”

Research on the General Algorithm and Benefit of Real-Time Positioning Advertising System—Based on the Use of 5G Base Station Data

“…As mentioned in some studies [11][12][13], comprehensive open 5G competition will cause market volatility. Advertising companies have the opportunity to collect some detailed audience information through the deployment of private networks [12], and telecom companies also have the opportunity to profit from various public or private network deployment services [13].…”

“…Advertising companies have the opportunity to collect some detailed audience information through the deployment of private networks [12], and telecom companies also have the opportunity to profit from various public or private network deployment services [13]. Of course, if the commercial market changes too much, it may also attract the government's attention and compel legislation to restrict such market competition [11].…”
