Summer School on Algorithmic Economics

近年来，在计算机科学和经济学的交叉点上出现了一个新的领域：算法经济学。到目前为止，学生们几乎没有机会集中接触这一领域。这是有史以来第一次算法经济学暑期班，将于2012年夏天在卡内基梅隆大学举行，将汇集大约50名来自计算机科学和社会科学的博士和高级本科生，以及算法经济学的顶尖研究人员，他们将就自己的专业领域进行集中授课。暑期班将涵盖机制设计、均衡计算、社会选择、社会网络、市场设计和公平分配等领域。拟议的暑期班将促进算法经济学领域的理解，并促进计算机科学家和社会科学家之间的合作。它将强调算法经济学中的新兴领域，并帮助提高人们对这些领域的兴趣，从而带来概念和技术上的进步。暑期班也将作为未来算法经济学暑期班的基础。

Recent years have seen the growth of a new field at the intersection of computer science and economics: algorithmic economics. So far there were few opportunities for students to receive a concentrated exposure to this field. This first-ever summer school on algorithmic economics, to be held at Carnegie Mellon University in Summer 2012, will bring together roughly fifty Ph.D. and advanced undergraduate students from computer science and the social sciences; and top researchers in algorithmic economics, who will give concentrated classes on their areas of expertise. The summer school will cover areas such as mechanism design, equilibrium computation, social choice, social networks, market design, and fair division. The proposed summer school will promote understanding within algorithmic economics, as well as foster collaboration between computer scientists and social scientists. It will emphasize emerging areas in algorithmic economics and help increase interest in these areas, thereby leading to conceptual and technical advances. The summer school will also serve as a basis for future summer schools on algorithmic economics.
