Self-organizing multi-agent systems (MAS) use different mechanisms to mimic the adaptation exhibited by complex systems situated in unpredictable and dynamic environments. These m...
We discuss the design of multi-dimensional tender and auction mechanisms that combine Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and auction theory. The mechanisms select an agent to perform...
For the problem of allocating one or more items among a group of competing agents, the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism is strategy-proof and efficient. However, the VCG mech...
Due to the unavoidable need for system debugging, performance tuning, and adaptation to new standards, the engineering change (EC) methodology has emerged as one of the crucial co...
We investigate the problem of allocating items (private goods) among competing agents in a setting that is both prior-free and paymentfree. Specifically, we focus on allocating mu...
