MATCH-UP 2017

Location: Cambridge, MA, USA

We solicit papers and posters on matching under preferences.  The matching problems under consideration include, but are not limited to:

  • Two-sided matchings involving agents on both sides (e.g., college admissions, medical resident allocation, job markets)
  • Two-sided matchings involving agents and objects (e.g., house allocation, course allocation, project allocation, assigning papers to reviewers, and  school choice)
  • One-sided matchings (e.g., roommate problems and kidney exchanges)
