“…Preist et al proposed a coordination algorithm designed for agents that participate in multiple simultaneous English auctions [111], [110]. BiddingBot is a multiagent system that supports users in attending, monitoring, and bidding in multiple auctions through cooperative bidding [62]. Anthony and Jennings [3] present the design of a heuristic agent that participates across multiple English, Dutch, and Vickrey auctions.…”

Abstract-This paper surveys and analyzes the state of the art of agent-mediated electronic commerce (e-commerce), concentrating particularly on the business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) aspects. From the consumer buying behavior perspective, agents are being used in the following activities: need identification, product brokering, buyer coalition formation, merchant brokering, and negotiation. The roles of agents in B2B e-commerce are discussed through the business-to-business transaction model that identifies agents as being employed in partnership formation, brokering, and negotiation. Having identified the roles for agents in B2C and B2B e-commerce, some of the key underpinning technologies of this vision are highlighted. Finally, we conclude by discussing the future directions and potential impediments to the wide-scale adoption of agent-mediated e-commerce.

Abstract. Auctions are becoming an increasingly popular method for transacting business, especially over the Internet. This paper presents a general approach to building autonomous bidding agents to bid in multiple simultaneous auctions for interacting goods. The core of our approach is learning a model of the empirical price dynamics based on past data and using the model to analytically calculate, to the greatest extent possible, optimal bids. This approach is fully implemented as ATTac-2001, a top-scoring agent in the second Trading Agent Competition (TAC-01). ATTac-2001 uses boosting techniques to learn conditional distributions of auction clearing prices. We present experiments demonstrating the effectiveness of this predictor relative to several reasonable alternatives.
