Abstract
We survey the uses of combinatorial auctions that have been deployed in practice. We specify the key representational and economic aspects of deployed combinatorial auctions. Finally, we discuss behavioral economics considerations on both sides of the market, and the interrelated topics of simplicity and trust, highlighting key opportunities for future work.
Keywords: Combinatorial Auctions, Market Design, Bidding, Behavioral Economics.
