Simulation for business engineering of electronic markets
نویسندگان
چکیده
Developments in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) enable information systems to intermediate between sellers and buyers in electronic markets (e-markets). A business engineering methodology can be of help to design and develop e-markets by providing insight into current market and potential e-market structures, matching mechanisms and processes, and by evaluating the implications of e-markets. In this chapter, a first concept of an interactive, discrete-event, agent-based simulation approach for the analyses and design of e-markets is presented and evaluated.

متن کاملA DSS-Based Dynamic Programming for Finding Optimal Markets Using Neural Networks and Pricing
One of the substantial challenges in marketing efforts is determining optimal markets, specifically in market segmentation. The problem is more controversial in electronic commerce and electronic marketing. Consumer behaviour is influenced by different factors and thus varies in different time periods. These dynamic impacts lead to the uncertain behaviour of consumers and therefore harden the t...
متن کاملSimulations for Evaluating Electronic Markets - An Agent-Based Environment
The development of electronic markets is a challenging task. The Market Engineering (ME) approach suggests a structured development process. One critical point within electronic market development is the test and verification of the market regarding its design objectives. This paper introduces simulations as an appropriate method for the evaluation of electronic markets. It describes the Agentb...
متن کاملAgent-Based Simulation in Market Engineering
The development of the internet has led to a renaissance of traditional auction mechanisms in electronic form. Electronic auctions are used in manifold ways, e.g. in procurement processes as well as in the C2C area. The design of electronic auctions is important since the microstructural rules affect the auctions’ outcome. Market Engineering is a structured approach to develop and study electro...
متن کاملAssessing the Impact of Electronic Commerce on Business Performance: A Simulation Experiment
Before committing resources in developing Electronic Commerce (E-Comm) applications, organisations need to assess the bottom-line business benefits that E-Comm can deliver and compare them to the costs of the associated investments. However, the intangible nature of most E-Comm benefits may render the development of a business case very difficult in practice. In this paper we argue that compute...
