You are cordially invited to submit an original manuscript for the Electronic Commerce Research’s special issue on "Emerging Economic, Strategic and Technical Issues in Online Auctions and Electronic Market Mechanisms."
This issue of Electronic Commerce Research and Applications is devoted to exploring challenges and innovative research in the domain of online auctions and electronic markets, as well as research that offers new theories and theoretical insights for the design of electronic market mechanisms. We especially appreciate submissions that examine the impact of online auctions or other electronic markets viewed from the different perspectives of multiple disciplines: information systems, economics, business strategy, operations, public affairs, psychology, sociology, and computer science. This kind of work can vary from the most technical investigations to those that consider human and economic factors in auctions. Other issues of interest include, but are not limited to: auctions for collectibles like eBay; the auction-related aspects of electronic financial markets like NASDAQ and NYMEX; and electronic market mechanisms like reverse e-auctions, group buying and Internet auctions for the issuance of stocks, and other unique electronic markets made possible by advances in technologies over the last decade.
