The ACM Special Interest Group on Electronic Commerce (SIGecom) solicits submissions for presentation at the 20th ACM Conference on Economics and Computation (EC’19), the premier venue for research at the interface of economics and computation. Submissions are due on February 14, 2019. The conference will be held from June 24 through June 28, 2019, in Phoenix, Arizona, as part of the ACM Federated Computing Research Conference (FCRC).
Full details are available at the conference website at:

EC’19 has four technical tracks, detailed below. Each paper submission must designate one track, and will be reviewed by program committee members assigned to that track.
-
AI. Areas of interest include: social choice; fair division; prediction markets; preference elicitation; equilibrium computation and computational game theory; automated agents; theory of machine learning; behavioral game theory and bounded rationality; privacy, fairness, and ethics; data markets.
-
Applied modeling. Papers submitted to this track should emphasize mathematical modeling of real-world systems; areas of interest include: ridesharing; kidney exchanges; school choice; labor markets; spectrum auctions; crowdsourcing; online platforms; the sharing economy; online advertising; economics of the cloud; cryptocurrency; peer grading.
-
Empirics. Papers submitted to the empirics track should primarily contain results derived by empirical methods; areas of interest include: computational social science; causal inference; experiments; structural estimation; data mining; applied machine learning; empirical analysis of real-world systems (e.g., online and offline platforms and markets); empirical behavioral economics; social networks (empirical analysis).
-
Theory. Papers submitted to the theory track should provide a strong methodological contribution; areas of interest include: market design; auctions; pricing; resource allocation; matching; price of anarchy; social learning; social networks (theory); learning in games; fair division; complexity of equilibria. Select accepted papers in this track will appear in joint sessions of EC’19 and the 51st Annual ACM Symposium on the Theory of Computing (STOC’19).
In addition, EC’19 is piloting a new program to offer authors of accepted papers the option to have their reviews and paper forwarded to a journal. Our partner journals are:
-
Operations Research, Revenue Management and Market Analytics area
Full details on the process for forwarding to journal are available at the conference website above.
