Combinatorial Auction-Based Virtual Machine Provisioning And Allocation In Clouds
… to be allocated to large number of users, auctions are the most efficient allocation mechanisms. Auctions achieve efficiency of allocation and also maximize the providers' revenue, which a fixed-price based mechanism is unable to do. We argue that combinatorial auctions are best suited for …

Bidder response to combinatorial auctions in truckload procurement
… use conditional bids within the framework of a combinatorial auction to win more business and balance their existing networks. Because a considerable portion of a truckload carrier's cost of serving a given lane is associated with the probability of finding a follow-on load (i.e. economies of …

Transportation service procurement using combinatorial auctions
Auction is a mechanism of selling distinct assets that can be both physical objects and virtual objects. Examples of virtual objects are the rights to use assets like airport time slots and FCC spectrum, or to service truckload delivery routes in a transportation network. Under some situations …

Reduced Complexity Mechanisms for Network Resource Allocation
… can be applied to reduce the complexity of a combinatorial auction if the users' valuation functions satisfy the strong substitute condition. We investigate the properties of substitute functions. The sufficient and necessary condition for a function to be substitute appears quite strong and …

A Multi-Agent System and Auction Mechanism for Production Planning over Multiple Facilities in an Advanced Planning and Scheduling System
… other researchers who have worked in this field, auction theoretic mechanisms are a good way to solve complex production planning problems. This research study develops a multi-agent system and negotiation protocol based on combinatorial auction framework to solve the given multi-facility planning …

Mitigating airport congestion : market mechanisms and airline response models
… airport congestion. As a strategic initiative, auctions have been proposed to allocate runway slot capacity. We focus on two elements in the design of such slot auctions -- airline valuations and activity rules. An aspect of airport slot market environments, which we argue must be considered in …

Análisis de la Relajación Lagrangiana como método de programación de talleres flexibles en un entorno multiagente
… as price mechanism in the context of iterative combinatorial auctions. The development of multiagent systems has enabled the implementation of distributed production scheduling systems. The coordination mechanism is crucial in these systems and its design is an important field of research. In …
