Abstract: This paper presents a precise market model for a well-defined class of distributed configuration design problems. Given a design problem, the model defines a computational economy to allocate basic resources to agents participating in the design. The result of running these "design economies" constitutes the market solution to the original problem. After defining the configuration design framework, I describe the mapping to computational economies and our results to date. For some simple... (Update)

...concept of game theory is widely in use. There has been a lot of research in distributed negotiation [10] market oriented programming [21], autonomous agents [19] and, evolutionary game theory [13] 14] The evolution of cooperative behavior among self interested agents has...

...there have been several proposals of such negotiation processes. A recent and promising approach are models of computational markets [82, 93]. In this case, and other proposals, the negotiation is modeled as an interaction protocol between the agents involved. An important...
