TLDR
The algorithm allows combinatorial auctions to scale up to significantly larger numbers of items and bids than prior approaches to optimal winner determination by capitalizing on the fact that the space of bids is sparsely populated in practice.

Truthful Market-Based Trading of Cloud Services with Reservation Price

TL;DR: This work designs a single-sided market mechanism for trading virtual machine instances in the cloud, where the cloud provider can express the reservation prices for traded services and proves that the proposed mechanism is truthful, i.e. the buyers do not have an incentive to lie about their true valuation of the services.

Due-Date Management Through Iterative Bidding

TL;DR: This paper presents an iterative bidding framework as a decentralized decision support tool which enables the integration of key DDM decisions and provides analytical results on the application of the proposed framework to two special cases of the integrated DDM.

A Non-Exact Approach and Experiment Studies on the Combinatorial Auction Problem

TL;DR: A simulated annealing heuristic with hybrid local moves is applied to solve a combinatorial auction brokering problem as a set packing problem and shows that the method is competitive with CPLEX 8.0 and obtains near optimal solutions for the CATS cases.

A Framework for Certified Boolean Branch-and-Bound Optimization

TL;DR: An abstract DPLL-based branch-and-bound algorithm that can model optimization concepts such as cost- based propagation and cost-based backjumping is introduced and its uniform method for generating independently verifiable optimality proofs is introduced.

Combinatorial Auction-Based Fog Service Allocation Mechanism for IoT Applications

TL;DR: This article proposes two types of truthful mechanisms for resource allocation and pricing in fog computing, and investigates that the combinatorial auction based mechanism can essentially enhance the allocation of the resources with high proficiency and creating higher income for the fog providers.

- 01 Jul 1973 - 
TL;DR: This paper analyzes the problem of inducing the members of an organization to behave as if they formed a team and exhibits a particular set of compensation rules, an optimal incentive structure, that leads to team behavior.
