Sequential Bundle-Bid Single-Sale Auction Algorithms for Decentralized Control
We study auction-like algorithms for the distributed allocation of tasks to cooperating agents. To reduce the team cost of sequential single-item auction algorithms, we generalize...

Bundle Design in Robust Combinatorial Auction Protocol against False-name Bids
This paper presents a method for designing bundles in a combinatorial auction protocol that is robust against false-name bids. Internet auctions have become an integral part of El...

Determining the Winner of a Dodgson Election is Hard
Computing the Dodgson Score of a candidate in an election is a hard computational problem, which has been analyzed using classical and parameterized analysis. In this paper we reso...

On the Sensitivity of Incremental Algorithms for Combinatorial Auctions
Despite the large amounts of runtime needed to adequately solve a combinatorial auction (CA), existing iterative CA auction protocols require winner determination during every rou...

CABOB: A Fast Optimal Algorithm for Combinatorial Auctions
Combinatorial auctions where bidders can bid on bundles of items can lead to more economical allocations, but determining the winners is NP-complete and inapproximable. We present...
