Title
Secure Multi-attribute Procurement Auction
Abstract
In this paper, we develop a secure multi-attribute procurement auction, in which a sales item is defined by several attributes called quality, the buyer is the auctioneer (e.g., a government), and the sellers are the bidders. Our goal is to develop a protocol in which acting honestly is a dominant strategy for sellers and that does not leak the true cost of the sellers, which is highly classified information that the sellers want to keep private. We first present a Vickrey-type protocol that can be used for multi-attribute procurement auctions. Next, we show how this protocol can be executed securely.
