Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce Designing Trading Strategies and Mechanisms for Electronic Markets Kartoniert (TB)

This volume contains ten thoroughly refereed and revised papers detailing recent advances in research on designing trading agents and mechanisms for agent-mediated e-commerce. They were originally presented at the 13th International Workshop on Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce (AMEC 2011) collocated with AAMAS 2011 in Taipei Taiwan or at the 2011 Workshop on Trading Agent Design and Analysis (TADA 2011) collocated with IJCAI 2011 in Barcelona Spain. The papers presented at these two workshops illustrate both the depth and broad range of research topics in this field. They range from pro viding solutions to open theoretical problems in online scheduling and bargaining under uncertainty to designing bidding agents in a wide area of application areas such as electronic commerce supply chain management or keyword advertising to designing agents that can successfully replicate actual human behaviors in realistic games.
