Near-Optimal and Robust Mechanism Design for Covering Problems with Correlated Players [PDF]

, 2016
We consider the problem of designing incentive-compatible, ex-post individually rational (IR) mechanisms for covering problems in the Bayesian setting, where players' types are drawn from an underlying distribution and may be correlated, and the goal is ...

Penalty mechanism in transactive energy: A mechanism design approach for day-ahead markets

Energy Strategy Reviews
Ensuring incentive compatibility mechanisms to enforce market obligations is crucial in deploying a transactive energy system. While previous studies have reported adopting penalty mechanisms for market compliance, these studies did not generally analyse

Organizational Design, Project Selection, and Incentives

Journal of Institutional and Theoretical Economics, 2006
This paper compares benefits and costs related to hierarchical and decentralized organizations in an agency framework. We show that the relative efficiency of hierarchy diminishes in contexts with asymmetric information. When effort is not observable, performance-related pay is required in order to encourage the agent to work hard.

Privacy-Aware Sensing-Quality-Based Budget Feasible Incentive Mechanism for Crowdsourcing Fingerprint Collection

IEEE Access, 2020
Mobile crowdsourcing (MCS) has shown great potential in received signal strength (RSS) fingerprint collection, in which an incentive mechanism plays a critical role to motivate users' participation.

Mechanism Design with Weaker Incentive Compatibility Constraints [PDF]

We study an adverse selection problem, where an agent is able to understate his productivity, but not allowed to overstate it. The solution to this problem is generally different than the solution to the standard problem, where no restriction is made on ...
