Abstract

We introduce a new type of combinatorial auction
that allows agents to bid for goods to buy, for goods
to sell, and for transformations of goods. One such
transformation can be seen as a step in a production
process, so solving the auction requires choosing
the sequence in which the accepted bids should be
implemented. We introduce a bidding language for
this type of auction and analyse the corresponding
winner determination problem.
