摘要： A method of allocating an award in an auction wherein an award for a given auction round is allocated amongst a plurality of highest ranked bidders including at least a first ranked bidder and a second ranked bidder is disclosed. The method provides an incentive to the first ranked bidder and the second ranked bidder to each improve their respective bids during the conducting of the auction. The method includes adopting a formula for allocating the award amongst at least the first ranked bidder and the second ranked bidder, conducting the electronic auction, and allocating the award between at least the first and second ranked bidders in accordance with the formula and the bids of the first and second ranked bidders. A factor of the formula is an actual bid differential between a bid of the first ranked bidder and a bid of the second ranked bidder. Furthermore, application of the formula to bids of the first and second ranked bidders causes a first portion of the award allocated to the first ranked bidder to increase, and a second portion of the award allocated to the second ranked bidder to decrease as a magnitude of the actual bid differential increases.
摘要翻译：公开了一种在拍卖中分配奖励的方法，其中在包括至少第一等级的投标者和第二等级的投标者的多个最高排名的投标者中分配给定的拍卖的奖励。该方法为进行拍卖时提供了对第一名投标人和第二名投标人的奖励，以提高其各自的出价。该方法包括：采用一种在至少第一名投标人和第二名投标人之间分配奖励的公式，进行电子拍卖，并根据公式和至少第一和第二名投标人之间的奖励分配奖励排名第一和第二名的投标人。公式的一个因素是第一个出价者的出价与第二个出价者的出价之间的实际出价差额。此外，将公式应用于第一和第二名投标者的投标将导致分配给第一名投标者的奖励的第一部分增加，并且分配给第二名次出价者的奖励的第二部分减少为实际出价差异增加。

摘要： A method and system for conducting electronic auctions is described. A dynamic lot closing extension feature avoids collisions in closing times of multiple lots by dynamically extending the closing time of a subsequent lot if a preceding lot's closing time is extended to be too close to the subsequent lot's then-currently scheduled closing time. Scheduled closing times can be extended with a flexible overtime feature, in which the properties of the event triggering the extension and the duration of the overtime period(s) can be tailored to a particular auction, particular lots of products within an auction, and to the particular time within an auction process. The bidding status of a lot can be set to a “pending” status after the nominal closing time for submission of bids to allow bidders to alert the auction coordinator of technical problems in submission of bids. This allows the possibility for a lot to be return to open status for further bidding by all bidders. The auction may be paused by the auction coordinator to correct technical, market and miscellaneous problems that may arise during the course of an auction. Individual bid ceilings can be set for each bidder so that they are required to bid lower than certain thresholds determined in advance of the auction. Failsafe error detection is performed to prevent erroneous bids from entering the auction. The auction coordinator has the ability to override any erroneous bids that are entered to prevent prejudice to the auction.

摘要： An auction is conducted by obtaining, from a buyer, information associated with a product to be purchased using an auction, where the buyer purchases the product from a winning bidder. The obtained information associated with the product is made available to at least a first bidder and a second bidder. A first bid that includes a first price and a first non-price information is received from the first bidder. A second bid that includes a second price and a second non-price information is received, from the second bidder. Non-price information is associated with (1) a description of a particular product a given bidder will provide in the event the given bidder wins the auction and/or (2) delivery of a product by the given bidder in the event the given bidder wins the auction. A first comparison value is generated based at least in part on the first price and the first non-price information. A second comparison value is generated based at least in part on the second price and the second non-price information. The first comparison value and the second comparison value are compared and the winning bidder of the auction is selected based at least in part on the comparison.

摘要： A method and system for an electronic auction is described. Bids by participating bidders are specified over multiple contract term segments (e.g., years), and define a pattern of cash payments over time. The auction system converts the defined pattern of cash payments over time into a net present value bid. The net present value bids are used to effect a comparison between participating bidders.
