  Computing optimal outcomes under an expressive representation of settings with externalities
Conitzer V., Sandholm T. Journal of Computer and System Sciences 78(1): 2-14, 2012.  Type: Article

Computing optimal allocations is a ubiquitous and notoriously hard computational problem that is significant in settings such as combinatorial auctions. This paper considers an expressive representation of such settings in which agents...

   Computing with social trust
Golbeck J. (ed), Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, 2008. 338 pp.  Type: Book (9781848003552)

The growth of distributed networks--the Internet, social networks such as Facebook, economic networks such as eBay, and wireless networks--has brought to the fore the issue of network user trust. Social trust is becom...

  Game theoretic problems in network economics and mechanism design solutions
Narahari Y., Garg D., Narayanam R., Prakash H., Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, 2009. 304 pp.  Type: Book (9781848009370)

Mechanism design has been called inverse game theory, where mechanisms are designed in such a way that the global aims of the designer are met, based on the selfish strategic behavior of the participants. These global aims may include ...

  Complex graphs and networks (CBMS Regional Conference Series in Mathematics)
Chung F., Lu L., AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY, Boston, MA, 2006. 264 pp.  Type: Book (9780821836576)

Networks are ubiquitous due to the presence of different kinds of social, economic, and information networks around us. The analysis of massive networks such as Internet graphs, social networks, and biological networks requires advance...

   Algorithmic aspects of graph connectivity
Nagamochi H., Ibaraki T., Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 2008. 392 pp.  Type: Book (9780521878647)

Graph connectivity is a central notion within the vast and rich field of graph theory and has long been studied by combinatorialists. It is then natural to examine the algorithmic aspects of graph connectivity and analyze how efficient...
