Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the design of efficient & dynamic methods to allocate divisible resources under various auction mechanisms, discussing their applications in power & microgrid systems and the V2G & EV charging coordination problems in smart grids. It describes the design of dynamic methods for single-sided and double-sided auction games and presents a number of simulation cases verifying the performances of the proposed algorithms in terms of efficiency, convergence and computational complexity. Further, it explores the performances of certain auction mechanisms in a hierarchical structure and with large-scale agents, as well as the auction mechanisms for the efficient allocation of multi-type resources. Lastly, it generalizes the main and demonstrates their application in smart grids. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of optimization, game theory, auction mechanisms and smart grids interested in designing dynamic auction mechanisms to implement optimal allocation of divisible resources, especially electricity and other types of energy in smart grids.

Book Putting Auction Theory to Work

Download or read book Putting Auction Theory to Work written by Paul Milgrom and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-12 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive introduction to modern auction theory and its important new applications. It is written by a leading economic theorist whose suggestions guided the creation of the new spectrum auction designs. Aimed at graduate students and professionals in economics, the book gives the most up-to-date treatments of both traditional theories of 'optimal auctions' and newer theories of multi-unit auctions and package auctions, and shows by example how these theories are used. The analysis explores the limitations of prominent older designs, such as the Vickrey auction design, and evaluates the practical responses to those limitations. It explores the tension between the traditional theory of auctions with a fixed set of bidders, in which the seller seeks to squeeze as much revenue as possible from the fixed set, and the theory of auctions with endogenous entry, in which bidder profits must be respected to encourage participation.

Download or read book Expert Auction written by E. V. Shepard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Expert Auction: A Clear Exposition of the Game, as Actually Played by Experts, With Numerous Suggestions for Improvement Expert Auction demands proficiency in several distinct departments of the game - the bid, the play, and the laws. Aptitude, study, and practice with experts are needed to produce really good players. The ordinary home game, and even the best that the great majority of social clubs can offer, is poor compared to the game regularly played in clubs which make a specialty of Auction. Luck is so large a factor that average players with good hands fail to realize that an expert could win from 20 per cent, to 40 per cent, more with the same cards. Yet it is not at all difficult to play well. The first step and usually the hardest is to realize that your present game lacks something. Every one's game can be bettered, and if you honestly seek improvement you will find it. It is possible to deal 635,013,559,600 different Auction hands. The best possible system of bid and play is that which, if 'consistently followed, would win the most possible points if each of these hands could be played.

Book Scientific Auction Bridge

Download or read book Scientific Auction Bridge written by Edward Valentine Shepard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scientific Auction Bridge: A Clear Exposition of the Game to Aid Both the Beginner and the Experienced Player, With Explicit and Easy Rules for Bidding and Playing It is quite unnecessary to know anything of either Whist or Bridge to readily learn to play a good game of Auction Bridge. The three games have much in com mon, but some of the principles involved are so radically different that a beginner who knows nothing of the older game can about as readily learn what Whist and Bridge players really know of the new game as the latter players can unlearn what does not apply to it. The closer a player follows the probabilities on sizing up his hand, bidding, doubling, redoubling, leading, and so on, the bigger his score will average. This is the first work on Auction Bridge to enter thoroughly into the mathematical probabilities of the game.' Minor changes have resulted in the rules for the play of the cards to give their holder the benefit of increased chances to win. The great changes from methods commonly used by the average player come in the bidding system which is based upon mathematical facts.

Book Game Theory and Exercises

Download or read book Game Theory and Exercises written by Gisèle Umbhauer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-08 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Game Theory and Exercises introduces the main concepts of game theory, along with interactive exercises to aid readers’ learning and understanding. Game theory is used to help players understand decision-making, risk-taking and strategy and the impact that the choices they make have on other players; and how the choices of those players, in turn, influence their own behaviour. So, it is not surprising that game theory is used in politics, economics, law and management. This book covers classic topics of game theory including dominance, Nash equilibrium, backward induction, repeated games, perturbed strategie s, beliefs, perfect equilibrium, Perfect Bayesian equilibrium and replicator dynamics. It also covers recent topics in game theory such as level-k reasoning, best reply matching, regret minimization and quantal responses. This textbook provides many economic applications, namely on auctions and negotiations. It studies original games that are not usually found in other textbooks, including Nim games and traveller’s dilemma. The many exercises and the inserts for students throughout the chapters aid the reader’s understanding of the concepts. With more than 20 years’ teaching experience, Umbhauer’s expertise and classroom experience helps students understand what game theory is and how it can be applied to real life examples. This textbook is suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate students who study game theory, behavioural economics and microeconomics.

Book Spectrum Auctions

Download or read book Spectrum Auctions written by Geoffrey Myers and published by LSE Press. This book was released on 2023-02-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Access to the radio spectrum is vital for modern digital communication. It is an essential component for smartphone capabilities, the Cloud, the Internet of Things, autonomous vehicles, and multiple other new technologies. Governments use spectrum auctions to decide which companies should use what parts of the radio spectrum. Successful auctions can fuel rapid innovation in products and services, unlock substantial economic benefits, build comparative advantage across all regions, and create billions of dollars of government revenues. Poor auction strategies can leave bandwidth unsold and delay innovation, sell national assets to firms too cheaply, or create uncompetitive markets with high mobile prices and patchy coverage that stifles economic growth. Corporate bidders regularly complain that auctions raise their costs, while government critics argue that insufficient revenues are raised. The cross-national record shows many examples of both highly successful auctions and miserable failures. Drawing on experience from the UK and other countries, senior regulator Geoffrey Myers explains how to optimise the regulatory design of auctions, from initial planning to final implementation. Spectrum Auctions offers unrivalled expertise for regulators and economists engaged in practical auction design or company executives planning bidding strategies. For applied economists, teachers, and advanced students this book provides unrivalled insights in market design and public management. Providing clear analytical frameworks, case studies of auctions, and stage-by-stage advice, it is essential reading for anyone interested in designing public-interested and successful spectrum auctions.

Book Foster s Auction Made Easy

    Book Details:
  • Author : R F Foster
  • Publisher : Independently Published
  • Release : 2019-06-26
  • ISBN : 9781076321404
  • Pages : 156 pages

Download or read book Foster s Auction Made Easy written by R F Foster and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-26 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the following pages there are no theories advanced, no reasons assigned for the system of bidding and play, no explanations given. You are simply told to do certain things with certain combinations of cards, and the author guarantees that if you will follow these directions conscientiously and consistently, no one will be more astonished than yourself at the improvement in your game.Auction is not the complicated game that some persons imagine. As the name implies, it is a bidding game, and the bidding is the principal part of it. As all bids must be made on the cards held, and as there are only a few possible combinations that are worth a bid, it should be a simple matter to classify them, and state the bids that should be made upon them. This part of the game is purely mechanical, based on the mathematical expectation of averages, just like an insurance policy. Any person of ordinary intelligence should be able to learn it.Why these bids should be made on the cards indicated, it is not the purpose of this work to state. That is for the more elaborate treatises on the game, such as "Foster on Auction." The pupil in school is not told why a pint of liquid is equal to a pound of weight, and the reader of these pages is not told why five hearts to the ace king should be good for the odd trick if hearts are trumps, and you play the hand.All one has to do to become a first-class player is to read the directions in these pages and follow them at the card table. The mathematical percentage of the game will do the rest. The best test of your improvement is not how many rubbers you win, but their value. If the average value of the rubber you win is anywhere from ten to fifty points greater than the average value of the rubbers you lose, you are a fine player.The following table of contents is so arranged that the reader may turn at once to any part of the tactics of bidding or play upon which he wishes to refresh his memory, or improve his game. If you cut into a rubber with persons who do not know these principles, or who do not apply them, you will have as much the best of it as if you were playing backgammon with loaded dice, because there is no game in the world in which the percentage in favor of sound bidding and play is greater than in auction bridge.
