Evolutionary Game Theory and Innovative Building Strategies

In this work, authors have used evolutionary game theory logic to evaluate if a traditional building design will remain a stable environment when facing a new (e.g., energy conscious) building design strategy. The idea is to investigate if the builders of innovative design strategy are going to be able to develop a footstep within the already established traditional design environment, become an alternative, and finally take over this environment and become the dominant building construction strategy. In other words, to see if the new strategy can take over, and change the traditional environment in such a way that the traditional strategy builders will be forced to adopt the innovative model strategy.
