Fair Payments for Efficient Allocations in Public Sector Combinatorial Auctions
Motivated by the increasing use of auctions by government agencies, we consider the problem of fairly pricing public goods in a combinatorial auction. A well-known problem with the incentive-compatible Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) auction mechanism is that the resulting prices may not be in the core. Loosely speaking, this means the payments of the winners could be so low, that there are losing ...
متن کاملConditional Payments for Computing Markets
The problem of outsourcing computations in distributed environments has several security challenges. These challenges stem from the lack of trust between the outsourcer and a worker. Previous work has extensively considered one side of the trust problem the efficient verification of the completion of the outsourced computation. We believe this to be the first work that simultaneously addresses ...
متن کاملImproved Conditional E-Payments
Conditional e-cash or conditional e-payments have been introduced by Shi et al. as the means for enabling electronic payments to be based on the outcome of a certain condition not known in advance. In this framework, a payer obtains an electronic coin and can transfer it to a payee under a certain condition. Once the outcome of the condition is known, if it was favorable to the payee, the payee...
متن کاملClient-Server Framework for Securely Outsourcing Computations
In recommendation systems, service providers can recommend products to their customers based on personal data from many users. To avoid leakage of these personal data, service providers use secret sharing. This enables them to compute the recommendation, while remaining oblivious to the contents. Only the user requesting the output will be able to combine all shares of the recommendation and le...
متن کاملSecure Outsourcing of Some Computations
The rapid growth of the Internet facilitates the outsourcing of certain computations, in the following sense: A customer who needs these computations done on some data but lacks the computational resources (or programming expertise) to do so, can use an external agent to perform these computations. This currently arises in many practical situations, including the nancial services and petroleum ...
