Abstract

Models of policy of companies on the market with competing technologies are considered. It is shown that the Gibbs random fields can serve as a convenient formalization for the investigation of such models. In this case the highly developed theory of Markov random fields can be used for analysis and choice of optimal strategies. Bibliography: 14 titles.
