Distributed algorithmic mechanism design

Distributed algorithmic mechanism design

Distributed algorithmic mechanism design (DAMD) is an extension of algorithmic mechanism design.

DAMD differs from Algorithmic mechanism design since the algorithm is computed in a distributed manner rather than by a central authority. This greatly improves computation time since the burden is shared by all agents within a network

One major obstacle in DAMD is ensuring that agents reveal the true costs or preferences related to a given scenario. Often these agents would rather lie in order to improve his or her own utility. A number of solutions apply to Algorithmic mechanism design but not to DAMD since DAMD does not require a central authority figure.
