[DMANET] A Special Issue of Algorithms on "Online Algorithms in Trading Systems"

Special Issue "Online Algorithms in Trading Systems‎"
A special issue of Algorithms (ISSN 1999-4893).
https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/online_algorithm_trading_syst

Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 December 2019

Dear Colleagues,

Online algorithms handle situations where the future input is unknown.
Since competitive
analysis was first introduced in the mid-1980s, online algorithms have been
studied for a
wide range of problems, and naturally this includes those involving
financial markets and
trading. As algorithmic and high-frequency trading become increasingly
prevalent, many new
algorithmic questions and challenges arise.

For this Special Issue, we invite submissions of articles that describe
recent advances in the
design and analysis of online algorithms for trading systems (broadly
defined). Both original
research papers and surveys are welcome. Topics of interest include, but
are not limited to:

- Time series search
- Trading strategies
- Portfolio optimization
- Hedging and risk management
- Pricing and market clearing
- Auction systems
- Mechanism design and other game-theoretic issues
- Empirical evaluation of algorithm performance

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering
<https://www.mdpi.com/user/register/> and logging in to this website
<https://www.mdpi.com/user/login/>. Once you are registered, click here to
go to the
submission form <
https://www.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/?journal=algorithms>.
Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be
peer-reviewed. Accepted
papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted)
and will be listed
together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles
as well as short
communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract
(about 100 words)
can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be
under
consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings
papers). All
manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review
process. A guide for
authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is
available on the
Instructions for Authors <
https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/instructions> page.
Algorithms <https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/> is an international
