Many commonly-used auction mechanisms are "maximal-in-range". We show that any maximalin-range mechanism for n bidders and m items cannot both approximate the social wel...
In this paper, we present a simple distributed algorithm for resource allocation which simultaneously approximates the optimum value for a large class of objective functions. In p...
