16th International Auction

This book covers recent advances in electronic commerce research activities. It aims to encourage activities in this field, and to serve researchers with an interest in electronic commerce. This book is edited from some aspects of e-commerce researches including theoretical mechanism design of trading based on auctions, allocation mechanism based on negotiation among multi-agent, case-study and analysis of e-trading, data engineering issues in e-commerce, and so on.

The 2nd International Conference on Bigdata Blockchain and Economy Management (ICBBEM 2023) was successfully held on 19-21 May 2023 in Hangzhou, China. The conference aims to present the latest research results in the areas related to Big Data, Blockchain and Economic Management, and provide an opportunity for experts and scholars from various fields to meet face-to-face, exchange new ideas and practical experiences, establish business or research relationships, and seek future international cooperation. This volume contains a collection of excellent papers from the conference, presented on topics such as computer software and computer applications, blockchain in data management, e-commerce and digital commerce, and linear regression analysis. We hope that these papers will serve as a reference for young scholars in their future research.
