Program Organizers: Deepak Agarwal (Yahoo!)
and Diane Lambert (Google)
Local Organizer: David Banks (Duke University)
SAMSI Liaison: Ilse Ipsen (NC State University)

This 2-week program will cover mathematical issues (including web search; massive, high-speed linear programming; better agent-based models for auction dynamics; and the computational finance behind dynamic management of the sales portfolio), as well as statistical issues (including modeling and forecasting of trends among users;prediction methodology for recommender systems; and modeling revenue streams).
