Description
Algorithmic game theory brings together computer science and economics to tackle problems involving multiple self-interested parties.
The field has emerged over the past fifteen years, with both disciplines informing each other's approaches. This book provides an introduction to key concepts in algorithmic game theory, drawing on models and definitions from economics and game theory.
Case studies cover topics such as online advertising, wireless spectrum auctions, kidney exchange, and network management, illustrating the practical applications of these ideas.
