Posted the following: As ever, you can find these linked on the syllabus page.

I posted notes for the sixth class along with the the readings for next week. These include a paper of ours that discusses the entrants in the first of the competitions run using the JCAT software that we will use for the project.

The paper that Marcin will present (if we dont spend too long talking about the project) is also up there.

03/04/09

I posted notes for the fifth class.

I corrected the typos, but I haven't had time to add in the information about specializations of the VCG mechanism.

02/24/09

I posted notes for the fourth class, and the readings that go with them.

At some point we will start looking at these papers, honest.

You can find them linked on the syllabus page.

02/22/09

I posted revised notes for the third class.

02/20/09

I posted notes for the third class, and the readings for next week.

You can find them linked on the syllabus page.

The notes are still the ones from the class. I didn't get time to revise them, but I wanted to let you have the readings so you have a chance to look at them and I figured I might as well put up something in the way of notes.

02/04/09

Notes for the second class were posted.

You can find them linked on the syllabus page.

These include the results of the auction experiments. Turns out that you were surprisingly close to what the theory predicts :-)

It turns out that my trip is well timed: next Tuesday (10th February) is a CUNY Thursday, so there would have been no class even if I was in town, and we'll make up the class later on.

Welcome to the course.
