In this paper, we propose an extensible and flexible truthful auction framework that is individually-rational and self-collusion resistant. By properly setting one simple parameter, this framework yields efficient auctions (like Vickery–Clarke–Groves), (sub)optimal auctions (like Myerson’s optimal mechanism), and budget-balanced double auctions; by carefully choosing virtual valuation functions for...
Here we improve the theoretical framework for the optimal collaboration among researchers in a research team. A knowledge network model is established to find out the coefficient donating the efficiency of the collaboration with each pair of researchers. Furthermore, the variational inequality theory is employed to work out for the optimal solution for the time allocation problem. Finally a numeric...
