You may recall that I called for exactly this sort of research in my paper for the ITU's workshop on Market Mechanisms for Spectrum Management (January 2007): "...there is a body of econometric research, dealing mainly with government procurement and the extraction of natural resources, which looks at auction design, bid evaluation and bidding strategies in situations where the bids are multidimensional, combining variables like price and quality. The quality component itself is normally multidimensional and represented on a scorecard created by the buyer. This work may be relevant to Kontson and O’Hehir’s proposal – and to other rights continua – as it suggests ways to integrate performance and pricing..." (Beyond Licenced VS.
