New Frontiers in Online Auctions Research – Results from a Research
Agenda Enabled by Internet Data Collection

Massive Internet data extraction has enabled new levels of online
auction research in a way that is similar to real field experimentation.
The CIDRIS (Center for Internet Data and Intelligent Services) at the
University of Connecticut was created and funded to allow such research.
In this presentation I will overview completed research in the domain of
multi-unit online auctions, and ongoing research addressing the
mechanisms used by both eBay and Samsclub.com. By using a combination of
analytic tools and empirical research using the rich data sets that we
are able to amass, we go beyond the traditional economic studies that
relate input parameters to economic outcomes of independent auctions. I
will present results and ongoing research on bidder behavior
classification, and economic mechanism design by better understanding
the bidding dynamics within an auction and the activities of the market
surrounding individual auctions. Three different auction formats are
considered.
