Abstract

We extend the framework of mixed multi-unit combinatorial auctions, which deals with transformations of goods rather than only with atomic goods, by allowing time constraints in the bids offering these transformations. This way, bidders can express their scheduling preferences, while previously the auctioneer alone could decide the order of transformations.
