Detailed Description

In this class we are dealing with that part of the game that is the incentive scheme.

An incentive scheme rewards the agents for whatever it seems fit. At the moment there are four incentive schemes existent of which only two have to be used in simulation, since for the others a dominant strategy is existent. See DA Ruwe.
