WINE 2011, the 7th Workshop on Internet & Network Economics.

December 11-14, 2011, Singapore.

Over the past decade, there has been a growing interaction between
researchers in theoretical computer science, networking and security,
economics, mathematics, sociology, and management sciences devoted to
the analysis of problems arising from the Internet and the World Wide
Web. The Workshop on Internet & Network Economics (WINE) is an
interdisciplinary forum for the exchange of ideas and results arising
from these various fields. The seventh WINE will take place in
December, 2011 in Singapore.

All submissions will be peer-reviewed and evaluated on the basis of
the quality of their contribution, originality, soundness, and
significance. Industrial applications and position papers presenting
novel ideas, issues, challenges and directions are also welcome.
Submissions are invited in the following topics but not limited to:

* Algorithmic game theory
* Algorithmic mechanism design
* Auction algorithms and analysis
* Computational advertising
* Computational aspects of equilibria
* Computational social choice
* Convergence and learning in games
* Coalitions, coordination and collective action
* Economics aspects of security and privacy
* Economics aspects of distributed and network computing
* Information and attention economics
* Network games
* Price differentiation and price dynamics
* Social networks.

Submission Format

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts presenting original
research on any of the research fields related to WINE’11. No
simultaneous submission to other publication outlets (either a
conference or a journal) is allowed.

An extended abstract submitted to WINE’11 should start with the title
of the paper, each author’s name, affiliation and e-mail address,
followed by a one-paragraph summary of the results to be presented.
This should then be followed by a technical exposition of the main
ideas and techniques used to achieve these results, including
motivation and a clear comparison with related work. The extended
abstract should not exceed 12 single-spaced pages (full papers) or 6
pages (short papers) using reasonable margins and at least 10-point
font (excluding references and title page). If the authors believe
that more details are essential to substantiate the claims of the
paper, they may include a clearly marked appendix (with no space
limit) that will be read at the discretion of the Program Committee.
It is strongly recommended that submissions adhere to the specified
format and length. Submissions that are clearly too long may be
rejected immediately. The proceedings of the conference will be
published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
series, and will be available for distribution at the conference.
Submissions are strongly encouraged, though not required, to follow
the LNCS format.

Submission of Working Papers

To accommodate the publishing traditions of different fields, we allow
the authors to submit working papers that they intend to publish in
journals that do not accept papers previously published in conference
proceedings. These submissions will be reviewed together with the
regular submission using the same acceptance criteria, but only a
one-page abstract will appear in the proceedings with a URL that
points to the full paper and that will be reliable for at least two
years. Open access is preferred although the paper can be hosted by a
publisher who takes copyright and limits access, as long as there is a
link to the location. At the submission stage, such papers should be
formatted in the same way as the regular submissions (in particular,
they can be submitted as long or short papers), but the title page
should state clearly that the submission is a working paper.

Important Dates

* Submission deadline (regular papers): July 31, 2011.
* Submission deadline (short papers): August 7, 2011.
* Notification: September 15, 2011.
* Camera-ready copy is due on September 28, 2011.
