Call for Papers

Focus Theme: Innovative Auction Markets

Dear Colleagues:

EM - Electronic Markets is a scientific journal for
advancing the understanding and practice of electronic
markets and commerce (http://www.electronicmarkets.org).

Guest Editors: Ajit Kambil, Deloitte Research, Deloitte & Touche
               Eric van Heck, Erasmus University Rotterdam

The Internet and new information technologies have
enabled the development and widespread deployment of
electronic auction markets within and across
organizations. Some innovative applications of
auction markets include:

- Reverse and multi-dimensional auctions for procurement
- Using auction markets for liquidating excess inventory
  (e.g the use of eBay)
- Using auctions for prediction and information
  aggregation (as in the Iowa electronic markets,
  Hollywood Stock Exchange, newsfutures.com etc)
- Using auction markets for knowledge exchange and
  valuation
- Using auction markets for resource allocation or
  scheduling within organizations and across organizations
  (e.g the use of an internal market for emissions trading
  at British Petroleum).
- All-in-one markets (simultaneously enabling multiple
  auction and transaction mechanisms).

This call for papers seeks to create a special issue of
EM - Electronic Markets that consolidates key knowledge on
making various innovative auction markets work. Articles
can be based on diverse research methods ranging from
analysis of auction data, to rich case studies of auction
market applications and analytic specifications of specific
auction market designs. Topics addressed can include but
are not limited to:

- Online auction design,
- Decision support for bidding,
- Buyer and seller behaviors,
- Reputation and trust systems,
- Information architectures in auctions
- Business strategies for making auctions and markets work,
- Etc.

We welcome submissions from multiple disciplines studying
innovative auction market designs and applications (e.g
marketing, information systems, economics, operations
management). We encourage those who submit articles to
present their findings in a manner that makes the research
accessible to a broad audience both from academia and industry.

Each issue of EM is also open to submission of articles
which deal with topics of general interest to the electronic
commerce field. For further information, please visit the
contributors section on our website.

EM accepts papers between 3500 and 6500 words in length.
