This project assumes a network-on-chip architecture that can dynamically reconfigure its topology. 92(4) 1093–1103.ġ2.lsi.2 - Scheduling topology reconfiguration in Networks-on-Chip Last-minute bidding and the rules for ending second-price auctions: Evidence from eBay and Amazon on the Internet. Buy prices in online auctions: Irrationality on the Internet? Econom. Suitable for: CS, CS/Maths, MEng, MScNC, MScSWE, MScComp, MScIT Requirements: creativity and self-motivationĭesired: good background in algorithms, good programming skills (specially if the interface with auction websites is to be built), solid background in quantitative analysis How effective can this problem be modelled and solved with linear programming? And multi-criteria optimisation heuristics?Ī successful project will consider different ways to model the problem, will choose a particular optimisation algorithm and create a scenario to evaluate its effectiveness in maximising the value of purchases for a given auction scenario (either simulated or using actual data obtained from auction websites).JBidwatcher Java library to interface with eBay)? Can the algorithm be evaluated live through the automatic interaction with an online auction site (e.g.using simple behavioural models of other bidders)? Can the algorithm be effectively evaluated using a simulated environment (i.e.Can algorithms improve their effectiveness by learning from the current bidding history of the target auction? And of similar ones?.average winning bid, or list of winning bids over a period, such as Can the algorithms improve their effectiveness by learning from the history of similar auctions (e.g.How can the value of a particular purchase be estimated? A simple approach is to use price references for the products of interest, but alternative approches can try to infer value from other auctions of the same product (e.g.A number of interesting research questions can be addressed: This is an open-ended project that attempts to use optimisation techniques to decide, given a portfolio of available auctions and a fixed amount of money, which are the products and bids that would maximise the value of the purchases.
