Abstract

Workshop Report: NetEcon ™08 JOAN FEIGENBAUM The emergence of the Internet as a global platform for computation and communication has sparked the development and deployment of many large-scale networked systems. Often, these systems involve multiple stakeholders with divergent or even competing interests. Unmitigated sel sh behavior in these systems can lead to high ine ƒciency or even complete collapse. Research interest in the application of economic and game-theoretic principles to the design and analysis of networked systems has grown in recent years. The NetEcon Workshop promotes multi-disciplinary work and discussion about the role of incentives in communication and computation. NetEcon 2008 was held on August 22, 2008 in Seattle, in conjunction with ACM SIGCOMM 2008. NetEcon draws participants from three major ACM conferences (Sigcomm, EC, and SOSP) and from a wide variety of research areas (networking, theory, distributed systems, arti cial intelligence, and economics).
