As an old price-discovering mechanism, auction entered the economics literature relatively recently. The full flowering of theory came only at the end of the 1970s. But this old mechanism plays a significant role in the Internet era. The development of e-commerce has given auction newfound vitality. Meanwhile, e-auction is rapidly becoming a new business mode. But in the area of b2b e-business,...

Multi-attribute auctions play a very important role in our economy: (i) they are widely used in industry procurement; (ii) many markets for services are organized in a form reminiscent of private multi-attribute auctions; (iii) recently many Internetbased markets adopted multi-attribute structure. Multi-attribute auctions differ from standard low price auctions in that (a) a buyer chooses a win...

The use of reverse auctions for procurement activities has grown tremendously over the last several years. The majority of these auctions use a single dimension (price) format while providing constraints on non-price attributes such as quality and lead time. In this research, we present an auction mechanism for a buyer whose utility function is known and dependent on three attributes: price, qu...

Abstract The incentive mechanism of federated learning has been a hot topic, but little research done on the compensation privacy loss. To this end, study uses Local SGD federal framework and gives theoretical analysis under use differential protection. Based analysis, multi‐attribute reverse auction model is proposed to be used for user selection as well payment calculation participation in le...

As an alternative to the price-based traditional auction model, the multi-attribute auction model is an integrated model requiring the simultaneous trade of different types of attributes as the sellers and buyers deal. As a result, the design and modeling of the auction mechanism have become very difficult. This paper proposes a multiattribute auction model using the dominance-based rough sets ...

In this paper we propose the double auction allocation models for computational grids, and two double auction algorithms for resource allocation: Single Price Double Auction algorithm (SPDA), and Multiple Attribute Double Auction algorithm (MADA). The fairness and comprehensive performance are introduced into the traditional double auction models to evaluate impact of price, speed and storage o...

Auctions and negotiations are mechanisms used in market exchanges. Behavioral economics experiments focused on the mechanism efficiency which required highly simplified problems and contexts. This paper discusses an on-going project involving an experimental comparison of auction and negotiation mechanisms embedded in software which we have developed. The experiments are situated in an e-busine...

Today’s supply chains require more dynamic trading practices to better match suppliers with their customers. Additionally, the purchase decisions faced are rarely made on price alone; but rather on a bundle of attribute values. With ubiquitous computing and Internet connectivity, newer types of negotiation are emerging such as reverse auctions. This paper presents a heuristic algorithm for mult...

The emergence of auction that supports bids characterized by several attributes is one of the most recent evolutions within auction theory. This paper introduces the multi-attribute and transaction cost into the on-line auction, proposed by Lavi and Nisan. Different from the traditional on-line auction, the buyer makes decision only based on the bids, when each bidder comes one by one. We propo...

Recent years have seen an enormous increase in the role of information technology in markets. During the past few years, economists, game theorists, and computer scientists have started to take a direct role by designing various kinds of market mechanisms for electronic markets in various industries. What is so special about "electronic" market design is the fact that a designer has many more p...
