Abstract
Participatory sensing is a powerful paradigm that takes advantage of smartphones to collect and analyze data beyond the scale of what was previously possible. Given that participatory sensing systems rely completely on the users’ willingness to submit up-to-date and accurate information, it is paramount to effectively incentivize users’ active and reliable participation. In this article, we survey existing literature on incentive mechanisms for participatory sensing systems. In particular, we present a taxonomy of existing incentive mechanisms for participatory sensing systems, which are subsequently discussed in depth by comparing and contrasting different approaches. Finally, we discuss an agenda of open research challenges in incentivizing users in participatory sensing.

Competing demand-side intermediary auctioneers in online advertising exchanges
AAMAS '14: Proceedings of the 2014 international conference on Autonomous agents and multi-agent systemsWe study the effects of competition among intermediary brokers that run local upstream auctions and participate at a central auction as bidders on behalf of their buyers. More specifically, we focus on the result of the choice of different mechanisms ...
Revenue Equivalence of Large Asymmetric Auctions
One of the most important results in auction theory is that when bidders are symmetric (homogeneous), then under quite general conditions, the seller's expected revenue is independent of the auction mechanism (Revenue Equivalence Theorem). More often than ...
Flexibly priced options: a new mechanism for sequential auction markets with complementary goods
AAMAS '10: Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems: volume 1 - Volume 1In this work, we propose a novel option pricing mechanism for reducing the exposure problem encountered by bidders with complementary valuations when participating in sequential, second-price auction markets. In our mechanism, both the option and the ...
