Automated Markets and Trading Agents
Computer automation has the potential, just starting to be realized, of transforming the
design and operation of markets, and the behaviors of agents trading in them. We discuss
the possibilities for automating markets, presenting a broad conceptual framework
covering resource allocation as well as enabling marketplace services such as search
and transaction execution. One of the most intriguing opportunities is provided by markets
implementing computationally sophisticated negotiation mechanisms, for example
combinatorial auctions. An important theme that emerges from the literature is the centrality
of design decisions about matching the domain of goods over which a mechanism
operates to the domain over which agents have preferences. When the match is imperfect
(as is almost inevitable), the market game induced by the mechanism is analytically
intractable, and the literature provides an incomplete characterization of rational bidding
policies. A review of the literature suggests that much of our existing knowledge
comes from computational simulations, including controlled studies of abstract market
designs (e.g., simultaneous ascending auctions), and research tournaments comparing
agent strategies in a variety of market scenarios. An empirical game-theoretic methodology
combines the advantages of simulation, agent-based modeling, and statistical and
game-theoretic analysis.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/49510/1/ace_galleys.pd
Análisis bibliométrico de la producción cientÃfica sobre EconomÃa Experimental
La EconomÃa Experimental (EE) es un método de trabajo de la EconomÃa del
comportamiento que desarrolla modelos teóricos de comportamiento humano en
ámbitos económicos. Los experimentos económicos tienen ya una larga tradición, y
han proporcionado resultados espectaculares y conclusiones ampliamente
admitidas sobre la dinámica de mercados y el efecto de las instituciones
económicas. Las nuevas tecnologÃas facilitan la realización y el análisis de estos
experimentos. El objetivo principal de este estudio es la revisión sistemática de la
producción cientÃfica sobre EconomÃa Experimental, desde el año 1990 hasta finales
de 2021, en las bases de datos de Web of Science Core Collection y Scopus. El
análisis descriptivo de datos se realizó con el software Rstudio, mientras que el
análisis de redes se hizo con el software Vosviewer. El estudio muestra, entre otras
cosas, que la producción bibliográfica en este campo se ha intensificado
exponencialmente; asà como, que el paÃs con más investigaciones es Estados
Unidos y el autor más citado es Urs Fischbacher.Experimental Economics (EE) is a working method of behavioral economics that
develops theoretical models of human behavior in economic settings. Economic
experiments have a long tradition, and have provided spectacular results and widely
accepted conclusions about market dynamics and the effect of economic institutions.
New technologies facilitate the conduct and analysis of these experiments. The main
objective of this study is the systematic review of the scientific production on
Experimental Economics, from 1990 to the end of 2021, in the Web of Science Core
Collection and Scopus databases. Descriptive data analysis was performed with
Rstudio software, while network analysis was performed with Vosviewer software.
The study shows, among other things, that the bibliographic production in this field
has intensified exponentially; as well as, that the country with the most research is

Experiments in Designing Computational Economies For Mobile Users
Distributed operating systems provide users with transparent access to networkwide resources. As changes occur to network resources or as user locations and preferences evolve, the system must be able to adapt by reallocating, replicating, or moving its resources. We explore a market-based approach to resource allocation in suchenvironments, and describe initial experiments in designing and building computational markets for distributed operating system resources. We focus on the problem of redistributing network file allocations for a mobile user population in order to improvelocality and accessibility
