Abstract

The article aims to simulate the process of interaction between software provider and his client. The authors consider the problem of information support of foreign economic activity. For successful integration of regions into the system of world economic relations, it is necessary to provide exporters and importers with modern software. The problem is the mismatch between the strategies of the software provider and the client. An additional complication is the volatility of the parties’ behaviour. Both the provider and the user of the software must constantly review their strategy of behavior. To find the optimal variant of interaction, the authors calculated the Nash equilibrium.
